Fig. 1: The formation of linguistic representation in the human brain.
From: Progress, challenges and future of linguistic neural decoding with deep learning

a The human brain tracks the dynamic flow of speech and linguistic properties with minor response delay, and the neural response is performed in a continuous predictive manner. b The human brain and the neural networks can both encode textual or verbal stimuli into specific representations, and the decoding process aims to reconstruct the linguistic information. c In vocal communications, the brain processes the perception, comprehension, and generation of language. The processor and communication icons are from Vecteezy and Dreamstime.
