Carnegie Mellon researchers predicted the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) activation pattern for concrete nouns such as "celery" by statistically analyzing each noun's co-occurrence with 25 verbs such as "eat," "taste," and "fill" in a text database. The predicted brain activity is created by combining the fMRI signatures for each of these verbs weighted according to the frequency of their co-occurrences with the noun.
