Psychologists and neuroscientists extensively rely on computational models for studying
and analyzing the human mind. Traditionally, such computational models have been hand …

The ability to sustain internal representations of the sensory environment beyond immediate
perception is a fundamental requirement of cognitive processing. In recent years, debates …

Modeling human cognition is challenging because there are infinitely many mechanisms
that can generate any given observation. Some researchers address this by constraining the …

A major goal of psycholinguistic theory is to account for the cognitive constraints limiting the
speed and ease of language comprehension and production. Wide-ranging evidence …

Sensory information encoded by humans and other organisms is generally presumed to be
as accurate as their biological limitations allow. However, perhaps counterintuitively …

The brain has evolved to produce a diversity of behaviors under stringent computational
resource constraints. Given this limited capacity, how do biological agents balance reward …

A new wave of proposals suggests that scientists must reassess scientific concepts in light of
accumulated evidence. However, reengineering scientific concepts in light of data is …

The efficient representation of visual information is essential for learning and decision
making due to the complexity and uncertainty of the world, as well as inherent constraints on …

Both in everyday life and in memory research, people tend to think that items are 'held'in
mind, in the same way that a real-world object can be held in one's hand. Inspired by this …

We propose a mechanistic explanation of how working memories are built and
reconstructed from the latent representations of visual knowledge. The proposed model …
