a Results of decoding emotions from AlexNet representations. These results show that emotion information is processed hierarchically in a visual object processing system. b Differences between AlexNet layers in predicting emotion ratings. c The hierarchical processing of emotion information was consistent across the three subsets of BOLD5000 images. d The hierarchical processing of emotion information was consistent regardless of whether the BOLD5000 or Cowen17 dataset was used. e fc7 layer outperformed fc8 layer of EmoNet in predicting emotion ratings for the BOLD5000 dataset. f fc8 layer of EmoNet outperformed fc7 layer in predicting emotion ratings for the Cowen17 dataset. Error bars represent the standard error across cross-validated folds and each dot represents the result of a cross-validated fold.
