"In a world first, a research group in Kyoto Prefecture has succeeded in processing and displaying optically received images directly from the human brain.

The group of researchers at Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International, including Yukiyasu Kamitani and Yoichi Miyawaki, from its NeuroInformatics Department, said about 100 million images can be read, adding that dreams as well as mental images are likely to be visualized in the future in the same manner.

The research will be published Thursday in the U.S. scientific journal "Neuron."

Optically received images are converted to electrical signals in the retina and treated in the brain's visual cortex.

In the recent experiment, the research group asked two people to look at 440 different still images one by one on a 100-pixel screen. Each of the images comprised random gray sections and flashing sections.

The research group measured subtle differences in brain activity patterns in the visual cortexes of the two people with a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanner. They then subdivided the images and recorded the subjects' recognition patterns.

The research group later measured the visual cortexes of the two people who were looking at the word "neuron" and five geometric figures such as a square and a cross. Based on the stored brain patterns, the research group analyzed the brain activities and reconstructed the images of Roman letters and other figures, succeeding in recreating optically received images."

The Thinker

You are analytical and logical - and on a quest to learn everything you can. Smart and complex, you always love a new intellectual challenge. Your biggest pet peeve is people who slow you down with trivial chit chat. A quiet maverick, you tend to ignore rules and authority whenever you feel like it.

In love, you are an easy person to fall for. But not an easy person to stay in love with. Although you are quite flexible, you often come off as aloof or argumentative.

At work, you are both a logical and creative thinker. You are great at solving problems. You would make an excellent mathematician, programmer, or professor.

How you see yourself: Creative, fair, and tough-minded

When other people don't get you, they see you as: arrogant, cold, and robotic

I've forwarded this to a dA news poster as well, hoping dA will truly show GameSpy as the thieving hogs they are. ]]> ~chruser http://chruser.deviantart.com/journal/1331891/ http://chruser.deviantart.com/journal/1331891/ Tue, 28 Oct 2003 01:31:51 PST ~chruser http://chruser.deviantart.com/journal/1323527/ http://chruser.deviantart.com/journal/1323527/ Sun, 26 Oct 2003 01:01:53 PST ~chruser http://chruser.deviantart.com/journal/1321601/ http://chruser.deviantart.com/journal/1321601/ Sat, 25 Oct 2003 14:35:21 PDT ]]> ~chruser
