A Bayesian attractor network with incremental learning.

TL;DR: An incremental learning rule based on the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network that has palimpsest properties when employed in an attractor neural network, which does not suffer from catastrophic forgetting, has a capacity dependent on the learning time constant and exhibits faster convergence for newer patterns.

Improved bidirectional retrieval of sparse patterns stored by Hebbian learning

TL;DR: The improved BAM model opens interesting new perspectives in information retrieval it allows efficient data access providing segmentation of ambiguous user input, relevance feedback and relevance ranking, and the implication of this for a more flexible version of Hebbian cell-assemblies.

Associative Data Storage and Retrieval in Neural Networks

TL;DR: This chapter compares the performance of various models of finite as well as asymptotically infinite sizes for heteroas-sociation and autoassociation memory tasks specified by the properties of the pattern sets to be stored and upper bounds on the retrieval errors.

Cortical Region Interactions and the Functional Role of Apical Dendrites

TL;DR: How functionally distinct apical and basal dendrites can contribute to the information-processing capacities of single neurons is considered and, in particular, how information from different cortical regions could have disparate effects on neural activity and learning is considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Language models based on Hebbian cell assemblies

TL;DR: It is shown how associative neural networks as standard models for Hebbian cell assemblies can be extended to implement language processes in large-scale brain simulations and how assemblies can form by means of percolating activity across auditory and motor-related language areas.

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.
