Reading Minds & Machines

Can we reconstruct images that a person saw, directly from their fMRI brain recordings?

Can we reconstruct the training data that a deep-network trained on, directly from the parameters of the network?

The answer to both of these intriguing questions is “Yes!” 

In this talk I will present some of our work in both of these domains. I will then show how combining the power of Brains & Machines can lead to significant breakthroughs in both domains, and potentially bridge the gap between Minds and Machines. Finally, I will show how combining the power of Multiple Brains (with NO shared data) may lead to new breakthrough discoveries in Brain-Science, and allow mapping of information between different brains.
