Researchers at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell managed to provide evidence that a patient with a severe brain injury could, in their own way, communicate accurately by using complex machine-learning techniques to decipher repeated advanced brain scans. The study published in this week's issue of the Archives of Neurology, shows the difficulty of determining whether or not a patient is able to communicate using only measured brain activity, even if they are able to generate reliable patterns of brain activation in response to instructed commands...
