Coherent oscillatory networks supporting short-term memory retention.
Accumulating evidence suggests that top-down processes, reflected by frontal-midline theta-band (4-8 Hz) electroencephalogram (EEG) oscillations, strengthen the activation of a memory set during short-term memory (STM) retention. In addition, the amplitude of posterior alpha-band (8-13 Hz) oscillations during STM retention is thought to reflect a mechanism that protects fragile STM activations ...
متن کاملOscillatory Model of Short Term Memory
We investigate a model in which excitatory neurons have dynamical thresholds which display both fatigue and potentiation. The fatigue property leads to oscillatory behavior. It is responsible for the ability of the model to perform segmentation, i.e., decompose a mixed input into staggered oscillations of the activities of the cell-assemblies (memories) affected by it. Potentiation is responsib...

of the system. We regard this result as very signicant, in view of the fact that the same holds for the limited psychological ability of attention and STM. It may indicate that the oscillatory model contains the key to the understanding of these psychological ndings. In order to validate the hypothesis that STM is based on oscillatory correlations between ring rates of neurons, some more experi...
متن کاملA Simple Oscillatory Short-Term Memory
Oscillatory neural network models have been an increasing focus of study over the last several years. These models consist of recurrent neural networks whose dynamics are characterized by persistent learned/designed rhythmic activity. Here we consider simple oscillatory memories for short-term retention of items occurring as temporal sequences. By incorporating decay as well as interference, we...
متن کاملBrain Oscillatory Substrates of Visual Short-Term Memory Capacity
The amount of information that can be stored in visual short-term memory is strictly limited to about four items. Therefore, memory capacity relies not only on the successful retention of relevant information but also on efficient suppression of distracting information, visual attention, and executive functions. However, completely separable neural signatures for these memory capacity-limiting ...
