Representational structure or task structure? Bias in neural representational similarity analysis and a Bayesian method for reducing bias.
The activity of neural populations in the brains of humans and animals can exhibit vastly different spatial patterns when faced with different tasks or environmental stimuli. The degrees of similarity between these neural activity patterns in response to different events are used to characterize the...
