image: How “DecNef” works: Users regulate their brain activity pattern by themselves and receive information that describes how similar the regulated activity pattern is to the target state. By repeating this procedure, the users can modify their brain activity pattern so that it approximates the target pattern. This image relates to a paper that appeared in the Dec. 9, 2011, issue of Science, published by AAAS. The paper, by K. Shibata at ATR Computational Neuroscience Laboratories in Kyoto, Japan, and colleagues was titled, “Perceptual Learning Incepted by Decoded fMRI Neurofeedback Without Stimulus Presentation.” view more
