Network structure influences the strength of learned neural representations by Ari E. Kahn, Karol Szymula, Sophie Loman, Edda B. Haggerty, Nathaniel Nyema, Geoffrey K. Aguirre, Dani S. Bassett

“…Recent evidence suggests that some networks are easier to learn than others, but the neural underpinnings of this effect remain unknown. Here we use fMRI to show that even over short timescales the network structure of a temporal sequence of stimuli determines the fidelity of event representations as well as the dimensionality of the space in which those representations are encoded: when the graph was modular as opposed to lattice-like, BOLD representations in visual areas better predicted trial identity and displayed higher intrinsic dimensionality. …”
