It was computed as the element-by-element product of the time series (for each seed separately) and a Shannon entropy vector coding the uncertainty associated to each task configuration (task regressor).
Applications are linear graphs of tasks (pipelines), with a type associated to each task.
In our decision making experiment, uncertainty associated to a task configuration is intrinsically related to the variability of the decisions reported for such task.
The structural design of the regions, in terms of damage tolerance, becomes one of the crucial aspects in the mechanical performance of the whole component, the use of virtual testing techniques playing an important role in optimizing the costs associated to this task.
We will adopt the uncertainty principle associated to the task of detection of position and orientation as the main tool to provide quantitative bounds on the family of simple cells concretely implemented in primary visual cortex.
From a point onward, individuals tend to disregard the information or the risks associated to a task and are based solely on their over-inflated ability, which is built up on past incidents which might not have been always successful, Lichtenstein et al. 1977.
Two clusters whose BOLD activity correlated with the uncertainty associated to each task configuration were found.
Firstly, Shannon entropy concept was used to characterize the decision uncertainty associated to each task configuration in terms of within- inter- and pooled-variabilities. Multi-linear regression analyses revealed that pooled-entropy was the best predictor of the response times and was used to characterize the uncertainty associated to each task configuration.
Thirdly, the psycho-physiological interactions (PPI) paradigm and a conjunction analysis were employed to study the functional integration of the uncertainty codification, i.e., which brain areas gained functional connectivity as the entropy associated to the task configurations increased.
