Neural Network Dynamics

TL;DR: The critical pattern capacity often used in the literature is considered and the information capacity is introduced as a more relevant performance measure for pattern completion.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Adaptive 2D Holographic Associative Processor

TL;DR: An architecture and operating system that accommodates the requirements of fuzzy cognitive maps while utilizing the capabilities of photorefractive holography are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Asymptotics applied to a neural network.

TL;DR: A mathematical model of neural processing is proposed which incorporates a theory for the storage of information that lends support to a distributive theory of memory using synaptic modification.

Not the module does memory make – but the network

TL;DR: In this article, the authors question the attribution of internal representation properties to an assembly of cells in a discrete cortical module firing at a discrete attractor frequency and point to the internal representation as a broad and specific cortical network defined by cortico-cortical connectivity.
Dissertation

Spikes, synchrony, sequences and Schistocerca's sense of smell

TL;DR: It is concluded that synfire chains can be recalled much faster than the speed at which they were trained, and integrated the theoretically-determined mean weights into the locust model and present simulation results from it.

Theory of Optical Information Storage in Solids

TL;DR: The theory of three-dimensional optical storage lends support to Beurle’s proposed mechanism of information storage in the brain, and makes three- dimensional storage very suitable for associative memories.

Holographic Model of Temporal Recall

TL;DR: It is shown that there is at least one other mathematical model, which is considered to be a closer analogue of holography, because it operates with triple products of the temporal function to be recognized or recalled.

Improved holographic model of temporal recall.

TL;DR: The modified static system described here is an alternative to Longuet-Higgins' model and takes account of the weaknesses of the nervous system as well as of its powers to imitate human memory with models.

The Classification of Modifiable Synapses and Their Use In Models For Conditioning

TL;DR: It is argued that if the conditioning and memory mechanisms of the nervous system store information by means of modifiable synapses, some of these must be of class B or C, and if the models are to be given the property of extinction, classical conditioning requires modifiablesynapses of classes A and B or of class C.
