This is an interactive version of Fig. 3 in the paper entitled "Modelling concrete and abstract concepts using brain-constrained deep neural networks". You can view the cell assembly (CA) data for each individual concept that was used in the simulations. The top 3 rows show instance-CAs, whereas the bottom row shows an overlay of the entire concept-CA. In each row, the 12 areas are arranged in the same way as in Fig 2A/B of the paper (i.e., extra-sylvian areas on top, peri-sylvian areas on the bottom). The 4 central "hub" areas are shown as closer together because these areas are particularly strongly linked to each other (see Fig. 2A/B in the paper).

For further details, please consult the published paper here.

The raw data is available at Open Science Framework.
