Researchers have developed a novel method to improve brain activity prediction by fine-tuning language encoding models using fMRI data. Despite fMRI's significantly lower temporal resolution compared to ECoG, models trained on fMRI showed enhanced prediction performance for ECoG data. This approach successfully generalized even when fMRI data was temporally downsampled, demonstrating that slower brain recording methods can be valuable for building better models of faster brain signals.
