Detailed and abstract phase-locked attractor network models of early olfactory systems

TL;DR: It is shown that, in this network, odor-like stimuli evoke synchronization of excitatory cells, phase-locked to the oscillations of the local field potential, which is consistent with odor-specific attractors found in recent experimental studies.

On the Storage Capacity of an Abstract Cortical Model with Silent Hypercolumns

TL;DR: An analytical model of the storage capacity for this type of networks when they are trained with both the Willshaw and Hopfield learning-rules and a new method for coding arbitrarily sparse patterns into this network, which allows some of the hyperColumns to be silent, i.e. they do not send any information to other hypercolumns.

Boolean weightless neural network architectures

TL;DR: A trial investigating the resilience of weightless hardware Boolean elements in comparison to standard weighted arithmetic logic is detailed, examining the effects on the operation of the function when implemented on hardware experiencing high energy neutron bombardment induced single event effects.

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.
