Just imagine what we could do in 5-10 years! Preview Reconstructing the Mind’s Eye: fMRI-to-Image with Contrastive Learning and Diffusion Priors Above we can see two columns of images. The image on the left—the “seen image”—is a picture that is physically shown to a human. Then, the image on the right—the “reconstruction”—is what a ML model guesses the human saw using just a brain scan as the input. The first reaction of many to this is disbelief. How is it possible that a ML model can interpret what we saw from just a brain scan, and reconstruct such eerily accurate images? In this post, we’ll go deeper on how these results were achieved and the state-of-the-art in brain image reconstruction. We'll look at the brain, MR
