Japanese scientists say they have found a way to "read" people's dreams. Researchers at the ATR Computational Neuroscience Laboratories used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for what they say is, "the world's first decoding" of night-time visions. Their research is published in the journal "Science". The researchers wrote: "Visual imagery during sleep has long been a topic of persistent speculation, but its private nature has hampered objective analysis. Here, we present a neural decoding approach in which machine learning models predict the contents of visual imagery during sleep." They were able to predict what images their volunteers had seen with a 60 per cent accuracy rate.

日本科学家称他们找到了解梦的方法。来自日本国际电气通信基础技术研究所计算神经学实验室的研究人员通过磁共振成像解梦，他们也将其称之为全球的首次。此项研究刊登在了“科学”杂志上。研究人员写到：“很长时间以来，梦境成像一直是人们不断猜测的焦点，然而它的私密性问题也阻碍了对它的客观分析。在这里，通过对脑部神经分析，机器就能够对图像内容进行预测。”它能够对志愿者的图像进行预测，准确率达到了60%。

The research is a part of a wider programme aimed at studying the brain. It hopes to unlock the secrets of the unconscious mind to help the disabled move artificial limbs using brain activity. It could also help those with dementia and other neurological conditions. A spokesperson said: "Our expectations from the dream study are quite high, but we are also looking carefully at the ethical aspects of the technology, which may allow a third person to look at somebody else's thoughts." Head researcher Yukiyasu Kamitani said, "dreams have fascinated people since ancient times, but their function and meaning has remained closed". He believes his research is "a key step towards reading dreams more precisely".

这项研究也是研究大脑项目的一部分。并希望通过对无意识心理的探秘来帮助残疾人，帮助他们通过大脑活动来移动假肢。这项研究还能够帮助痴呆症患者，以及其他神经系统疾病。发言人称：“我们对解梦研究的期望值非常高，然而对这项研究的道德层面考虑也是非常仔细，我们或允许第三方来解读他人梦境。”研究组长神谷之康称，从远古时代起，人们一直对梦境倍感兴趣，然而梦境的含义却不为人们所知。”他认为这项研究会成为解梦的重要一步。
