Convergent neural dynamical systems for task control in artificial networks and human brains.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The ability to switch between tasks is a core component of human intelligence, yet a mechanistic understanding of this capacity has remained elusive. Long-standing debates over how task switching is influenced by preparation for upcoming tasks or interference from previous tasks have been difficult to resolve without quantitative neural predictions. We advance this debate by using state-space modeling to directly compare the latent task dynamics in task-optimized recurrent neural networks and human electroencephalographic recordings. Over the inter-trial interval, both networks and brains converged into a neutral task state, a novel control strategy that reconciles the role of preparation and interference in task switching. These findings provide a quantitative account of cognitive flexibility and a promising paradigm for bridging artificial and biological neural networks.
