Cinematic Mindscapes: High-quality Video Reconstruction from Brain Activity

Monthly visits:7979

Description:

Mind-Video is a two-module pipeline designed to bridge the gap between image and video brain decoding. The first module is an fMRI encoder that learns brain features through multiple stages, including multimodal contrastive learning with spatiotemporal attention for windowed fMRI. The second module is an augmented stable diffusion model that is specifically tailored for video generation under fMRI guidance. Mind-Video has been shown to outperform previous state-of-the-art approaches in terms of semantic and pixel metrics, and its attention analysis has revealed mapping to the visual cortex and higher cognitive networks, suggesting that it is biologically plausible and interpretable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q:What is Mind-Video?

A:Mind-Video is a two-module pipeline designed to bridge the gap between image and video brain decoding.
Q:How does Mind-Video work?

A:Mind-Video uses a progressive learning scheme where the encoder learns brain features through multiple stages, including multimodal contrastive learning with spatiotemporal attention for windowed fMRI. The learned features are then fine-tuned through co-training with an augmented stable diffusion model, which is specifically tailored for video generation under fMRI guidance.
