For the study, published in the journal Nature Communications, the researchers used a technique recently borrowed from the computer science field by neuroscientists —
multivariate pattern analysis — to examine
brain scans that were taken while people looked at a picture of someone who had rejected them.
Increased computational power now allows investigation of the whole -
brain correlation matrix, the temporal correlation of every voxel with every other voxel throughout the
brain, and the application of
multivariate pattern analysis to these correlational data.
Using linear regression, we demonstrate that the
multivariate pattern of gray matter density within these
brain regions significantly predicts individual intelligence scores in the remaining, i.e., independent sample used for model testing (N = 108; correlation between predicted and actual intelligence scores: r =.36).
Diego Sona gave the following talk at the International Conference on
Pattern Recognition (ICPR - 2010) that held in Istanbul, Turkey, on 07 - 09 September 2010: «
Multivariate Brain Mapping by Random Subsampling».
