Recordings from cells in the associative cortex of monkeys performing visual working
memory tasks link persistent neuronal activity, long‐term memory and associative memory …

Persistent neuronal activity is widespread in many areas of the cerebral cortex of monkeys
performing cognitive tasks with a working memory component. Modeling studies have …

How do we keep an object in mind? Based on evidence from animal electrophysiology and
human brain-imaging techniques, it is commonly held that short-term memory relies on …

We study unsupervised Hebbian learning in a recurrent network in which synapses have a
finite number of stable states. Stimuli received by the network are drawn at random at each …

Some forms of synaptic plasticity depend on the temporal coincidence of presynaptic activity
and postsynaptic response. This requirement is consistent with the Hebbian, or correlational …

Neuropsychological theories have proposed a critical role for the interaction between the
medial temporal lobe and the neocortex in the formation of long-term memory for facts and …

Single electrode recordings in the inferotemporal cortex of monkeys during delayed visual
memory tasks provide evidence for attractor dynamics in the observed region. The persistent …

Sequential activity has been observed in multiple neuronal circuits across species, neural
structures, and behaviors. It has been hypothesized that sequences could arise from …

Two decades of single unit recording in monkeys performing short-term memory tasks has
established that information can be stored as sustained neural activity. The mechanism of …

According to Hebb's postulate for learning, information presented to a neural net during a
learning session is stored in the synaptic efficacies. Long-term potentiation occurs only if the …
