Presentation / Conference Contribution
Schumacher, J., Toutounji, H., & Pipa, G. (2013). An Analytical Approach to Single Node Delay-Coupled Reservoir Computing. In Artificial Neural Networks and Machine Learning – ICANN 2013 23rd International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks Sofia, Bulgaria, September 10-13, 2013. Proceedings (26-33). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-40728-4_4

Reservoir computing has been successfully applied in difficult time series prediction tasks by injecting an input signal into a spatially extended reservoir of nonlinear subunits to perform history-dependent nonlinear computation. Recently, the netwo... Read More about An Analytical Approach to Single Node Delay-Coupled Reservoir Computing.

Enhanced unblocking from sustained post-trial surprise (2013)
Journal Article
Haselgrove, M., Tam, S. K. E., & Jones, P. M. (2013). Enhanced unblocking from sustained post-trial surprise. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 39(4), 311-322. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0032569

Two appetitive conditioning experiments with rats investigated the mechanisms and properties of unblocking that results from the surprising omission of an expected post-trial unconditioned stimulus (US). Experiment 1 demonstrated unblocking under cir... Read More about Enhanced unblocking from sustained post-trial surprise.

Looking for a face in the crowd: Fixation-related potentials in an eye-movement visual search task (2013)
Journal Article
Kaunitz, L. N., Kamienkowski, J. E., Varatharajah, A., Sigman, M., Quian Quiroga, R., & Ison, M. J. (2014). Looking for a face in the crowd: Fixation-related potentials in an eye-movement visual search task. NeuroImage, 89, 297-305. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2013.12.006

Despite the compelling contribution of the study of event related potentials (ERPs) and eye movements to cognitive neuroscience, these two approaches have largely evolved independently. We designed an eye-movement visual search paradigm that allowed... Read More about Looking for a face in the crowd: Fixation-related potentials in an eye-movement visual search task.

Can Adults With Autism Spectrum Disorders Infer What Happened to Someone From Their Emotional Response? (2013)
Journal Article
Cassidy, S., Ropar, D., Mitchell, P., & Chapman, P. (2014). Can Adults With Autism Spectrum Disorders Infer What Happened to Someone From Their Emotional Response?. Autism Research, 7(1), 112-123. https://doi.org/10.1002/aur.1351

Can adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) infer what happened to someone from their emotional response? Millikan has argued that in everyday life, others' emotions are most commonly used to work out the antecedents of behavior, an ability terme...

Motor excitability during movement preparation in Tourette syndrome (2013)
Journal Article
Draper, A., Jude, L., Jackson, G. M., & Jackson, S. R. (2013). Motor excitability during movement preparation in Tourette syndrome. Journal of Neuropsychology, https://doi.org/10.1111/jnp.12033

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by the occurrence of motor and vocal tics. TS has been linked to the impaired operation of cortical-striatal-thalamic-cortical circuits that give rise to hyper-excitability of cort...

Visual motion integration is mediated by directional ambiguities in local motion signals (2013)
Journal Article
Rocchi, F., Ledgeway, T., & Webb, B. S. (2013). Visual motion integration is mediated by directional ambiguities in local motion signals. Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 7, Article 167. https://doi.org/10.3389/fncom.2013.00167

The output of primary visual cortex (V1) is a piecemeal representation of the visual scene and the response of any one cell cannot unambiguously guide sensorimotor behavior. It remains unsolved how subsequent stages of cortical processing combine (“p... Read More about Visual motion integration is mediated by directional ambiguities in local motion signals.

Self-Related Consequences of Death Fear and Death Denial (2013)
Journal Article
Cozzolino, P. J., Blackie, L. E., & Meyers, L. S. (2014). Self-Related Consequences of Death Fear and Death Denial. Death Studies, 38(6), 418-422. https://doi.org/10.1080/07481187.2013.780110

This study explores self-related outcomes (e.g., esteem, self-concept clarity, existential well-being) as a function of the interaction between self-reported levels of death fear and death denial. Consistent with the idea that positive existential gr... Read More about Self-Related Consequences of Death Fear and Death Denial.

Temporary inhibition of dorsal or ventral hippocampus by muscimol: Distinct effects on measures of innate anxiety on the elevated plus maze, but similar disruption of contextual fear conditioning (2013)
Journal Article
Zhang, W.-N., Bast, T., Yan, X., & Feldon, J. (2014). Temporary inhibition of dorsal or ventral hippocampus by muscimol: Distinct effects on measures of innate anxiety on the elevated plus maze, but similar disruption of contextual fear conditioning. Behavioural Brain Research, 262, 47-56. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbr.2013.10.044

Studies in rats, involving hippocampal lesions and hippocampal drug infusions, have implicated the hippocampus in the modulation of anxiety-related behaviors and conditioned fear. The ventral hippocampus is considered to be more important for anxiety...

Cortical thickness, cortical and subcortical volume, and white matter integrity in patients with their first episode of major depression (2013)
Journal Article
Han, K.-M., Choi, S., Jung, J., Na, K.-S., Yoon, H.-K., Lee, M.-S., & Ham, B.-J. (2014). Cortical thickness, cortical and subcortical volume, and white matter integrity in patients with their first episode of major depression. Journal of Affective Disorders, 155, 42-48. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jad.2013.10.021

Background

The uncertainty over the true morphological changes in brains with major depressive disorder (MDD) underlines the necessity of comprehensive studies with multimodal structural brain imaging analyses. This study aimed to evaluate the dif... Read More about Cortical thickness, cortical and subcortical volume, and white matter integrity in patients with their first episode of major depression.
