Commentary: Sparse Brain Activity Patterns May Underlie Human Cognition
Jyrki Ahveninen and colleagues believe sparse brain activity, where only a few neurons in a population fire at a given time, might contribute to the fingerprint patterns of activity evident in multi-voxel pattern analysis results from functional MRI — and give rise to perceptual, emotional and cognitive functions.
