Facial expression discrimination emerges from neural subspaces shared with detection and identity

2025-08-27

Abstract excerpt

Understanding how the human brain decodes facial expressions remains a fundamental challenge, requiring computational models that tightly connect neural responses to behavior. Here, we demonstrate that rhesus macaques provide a unique and powerful animal model to uncover the neural computations behind human facial expression discrimination, bridging critical gaps between behavior, neural activity, and computationa...
