diagram of amplification of motor signal
:
Think critically about measurement/benchmarks: how will we define 'good,' 'accurate,' or 'similar?' The relevant literature can help inform this choice, and it must be done before we start running any models.
Another interesting thing Jason mentioned which relates to the levels of hypotheses was to think mechanistically: e.g. there is literature that suggests that high frequency gamma activity relates to neuronal spiking and low frequency activity relates neurotransmitter effects which act over longer time scales to change local field potentials, so perhaps there is some change in low frequency acitivity (i.e., local field potential) that precedes high frequency gamma activity (i.e., spiking) that is a signature of motor planning.
thinking more about it, this signal would likely be different in real vs. imagined movements.
conservation of energy
increase in high frequency = decrease in low, but increase in low frequency in surrounding regions
amplification of motor signal
How does sensory feedback (visual, somatosensory) mediate the relationship between task instruction and signal in ctx?
model performance imagined > real
How well does a model optimized for imagined movement perform on real movement?
similarity analysis between imaginary and real signal
Is it possible to extract the imaginary signal out of the real, overt signal?
speed of motor skill learning
Is there higher activation of electrodes over the duration of the imagined session? Higher synchrony of hand/mouth representations across multiple electrodes? How does visual feedback alter the synchrony?
