AI Article Synopsis
- Cognitive operations, especially in working memory, involve integrating information, which engages the frontopolar cortex (FPC) based on previous research.
- In this fMRI study, researchers examined how the FPC is involved in arithmetic tasks requiring the manipulation of one versus two features of information.
- Results indicated that while both conditions activated the FPC, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) showed increased activity in the dual-feature condition, suggesting the FPC facilitates integration while the DLPFC addresses the cognitive demands of the task.
Article Abstract
Cognitive operations often require integration of information. Previous studies have shown that, integration of information in working memory recruits frontopolar cortex (FPC). In this fMRI study, we sought to reveal neural mechanisms of FPC underlying the integration of information during arithmetic tasks. We compared a condition requiring manipulation of two features of an item held in working memory with manipulation of one feature. The results showed that, FPC was equally recruited in both conditions, while dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) tended to be more activated when manipulating two features. We suggest that, FPC plays an integrative role and is recruited by the production of representations in accordance with task constraints, whereas DLPFC appears to be sensitive to processing demands induced by the manipulation of information.

The unknown boundary issue, between superior computational capability of deep neural networks (DNNs) and human cognitive ability, has becoming crucial and foundational theoretical problem in AI evolution. Undoubtedly, DNN-empowered AI capability is increasingly surpassing human intelligence in handling general intelligent tasks. However, the absence of DNN's interpretability and recurrent erratic behavior remain incontrovertible facts.

The brain must maintain a stable world model while rapidly adapting to the environment, but the underlying mechanisms are not known. Here, we posit that cortico-cerebellar loops play a key role in this process. We introduce a computational model of cerebellar networks that learn to drive cortical networks with task-outcome predictions.
