Attractor neural networks and biological reality: associative memory

TL;DR: In this article, it is argued that neural networks (cell assemblies) whose connectivity involves strong feedback and which consequently can sustain patterns of high spiking activity (reverberations), are plausible descriptions of cognitive function in certain cortical regions.

A Massively Parallel Associative Memory Based on Sparse Neural Networks

TL;DR: This paper implements a variation of the Gripon-Berrou associative memory on a general purpose graphical processing unit (GPU) with a 880-fold speedup without sacrificing any accuracy.

Towards Cortex Sized Attractor ANN

TL;DR: The conclusion is that it is possible to simulate the mouse cortex today on a cluster computer but not in real-time.

An after-shannon measure of the storage capacity of an associative noise-like coding memory

S. Bottini
TL;DR: It is shown that the problem of measuring the information retrieved from the memory in a single recall and the problem — concerning the data-communication field —of measuring the Information transmitted over a noisy channel are formally similar.

On the Natural Hierarchical Composition of Cliques in Cell Assemblies

TL;DR: An implementation of formal concept lattices in bidirectional associative memories that in contrast to previous work satisfies Dale’s principle and uses balanced excitation and inhibition is presented.

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.
