Task demands dynamically structure feature selection, routing, and integration in the human brain

2026-04-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4> Abstract </h4> Flexible visual categorization requires selecting task-relevant information from complex stimuli and transforming it through structured computations. Yet how task demands flexibly control these computations in the human brain remains unresolved. Dynamic faces provide a powerful test case, conveying stable identity through 3D shape and transient emotional expression through 4D movement. Using...
