Probing Semantic Representations in Body-Selective Brain Regions

29.1 MB of resources associated with a neuroscience paper on semantic representations. The repository contains raw response data for each subject and indices of images used in a behavioral experiment, as well as SVG files for visualizing cortical surface maps. The dataset was authored by Ryuto Yashiro and last updated on May 22, 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze raw behavioral response data to investigate patterns in body perception tasks.
• Visualize cortical surface maps with region contours for subjects in the Natural Scenes Dataset (NSD).
• Correlate image indices with neural activity data to probe semantic content in body-selective brain regions.

Strengths

• Data is directly associated with a published scientific paper, providing research context.
• Includes both raw experimental data and visualization files (SVG) for cortical maps.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license, allowing for reuse with attribution.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.

Provenance

Source

figshare, associated with the paper 'Probing the content of semantic representations in body-selective regions'.

Collection Method

Likely collected from a behavioral experiment and fMRI study, as suggested by the description of raw response data and cortical visualization files.
