Decoding Naturalistic Episodic Memory with Artificial Intelligence and Brain‐Machine Interface
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Episodic memory weaves together what, where, and when of experience into a personal narrative. Cutting‐edge AI models may decode this intricate process in real‐life settings, revealing how neural activity encodes naturalistic memories. By merging AI with brain–machine interfaces, researchers are edging closer to mapping and even engineering memory ...
