My research is at the intersection of human neuroimaging, machine learning, and developmental psychology of mathematical cognition. Specifically, I am focusing on the following topics:
(1) Relationship between language and mathematics in the brain (Nakai & Okanoya, Sci Rep 2018; Cortex 2020)
(2) Development changes in brain representations of mathematics (Nakai et al., PLOS Biol 2023)
(3) Decoding higher cognitive functions using brain data and machine learning (Nakai & Nishimoto, Nat Commun 2020; Commun Biol 2022)
(4) Relationship between artificial neural networks and brain activity (Nakai & Nishimoto, NeuroImage 2023)
