Abstract: While the notion of the brain as a prediction machine has been extremely influential and productive in cognitive science, there are competing accounts of how best to model and understand the predictive capabilities of brains.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.conb.2020.03.014
Abstract: Neuronal ensembles, i.e. coactive groups of neurons, have been long postulated to be functional building blocks of cortical circuits and units of the neural code. Calcium imaging of neuronal populations has demonstrated the widespread existence… read more here.

Abstract: What role does the hippocampus play in semantic memory? In a recent paper, Cutler et al. use a vector space model of semantics to characterize semantic search deficits in hippocampal amnesia. We relate their findings… read more here.

Abstract: Hippocampus is known to be important for episodic memories. Measuring of hippocampal neural ensembles is therefore important for observing hippocampal cognitive processes such as pattern completion. Previous studies on pattern completion had a limitation because… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.947742
Abstract: Memory accuracy involves two major processes: pattern separation and pattern completion. Pattern separation refers to the ability to reduce overlap among similar inputs to avoid interference, and pattern completion refers to the ability to retrieve… read more here.
