Researchers have developed a novel method to analyze the relationships between cognitive tasks using fMRI data, extending previous single-source transfer learning models to a multi-source framework. This new approach, which utilizes Boolean Integer Programming (BIP), examines 23 Human Connectome Project task states and trains over a thousand task-specific and transfer models. The findings indicate that motor states transfer well within their own paradigm but offer limited support to non-motor tasks, suggesting a shared sensorimotor execution system. The study also highlights that working-memory states are prioritized under budget constraints, likely due to their integration of multiple cognitive processes. AI
