(MENAFN- AzerNews) Japanese specialists were able for the first time in the world
to develop a technology that uses generative artificial
intelligence (AI) to create images based on the processing of human
brain signals. Kyodo agency reported about it, Azernews reports.
During the experiment, a research team from the National
Institute of Quantum Science and Technology recorded brain signals
at the time of viewing human images of objects and landscapes. The
participants of the experiment were shown about 1,200 different
images. Brain activity was analysed using functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI). The same images were uploaded to an AI
database, which was tasked with learning how to correlate them with
brain signals.
Previous studies have already shown that images seen by humans
can be reconstructed from brain signals processed using functional
MRI. However, only a limited range of images could be reproduced in
this way.
Now Japanese scientists, based on previous achievements, have
developed a programme that converts brain signals into numerical
values, on the basis of which already trained artificial
intelligence recreates images.
The image of a leopard with clearly drawn mouth, ears and
spotted coat colouring turned out to be the closest to reality.
Scientists believe that this technology can be used in the
development of communication devices, as well as to understand the
mechanisms of hallucinations and dreams.
