Hierarchical process memory: memory as an integral component of information processing.
Models of working memory (WM) commonly focus on how information is encoded into and retrieved from storage at specific moments. However, in the majority of real-life processes, past information is used continuously to process incoming information across multiple timescales. Considering single-unit, electrocorticography, and functional imaging data, we argue that (i) virtually all cortical circu...
متن کاملShort-term memory as a working memory control process
Aben et al. (2012) take issue with the unthoughtful use of the terms “working memory” (WM) and “short-term memory” (STM) in the cognitive and neuroscientific literature. Whereas I agree that neuroscientists using the term WM to refer to sustained neural activation and cognitive psychologists using the terms interchangeably reflects that the field has lost control over its own dictionary, the re...
متن کاملOptical memory disks in optical information processing.
We describe the use of optical memory disks as elements in optical information processing architectures. The optical disk is an optical memory device with a storage capacity approaching 10(10) bits which is naturally suited to parallel access. We discuss optical disk characteristics which are important in optical computing systems such as contrast, diffraction efficiency, and phase uniformity. ...
متن کاملHuman Information Processing: Vision, Memory, and Attention
In everyday life, we occasionally look at blank, untextured regions of the world around us—a blue unclouded sky, for example. Most of the time, however, our eyes see regions occupied by spatial patterning, by texture, form, or patterns, as when looking at a person to whom we are talking or at the text on this page. Furthermore, there is constant temporal change as well as spatial patterning, if...
متن کاملBounded Memory and Biases in Information Processing∗
This paper explores the connection between bounded memory and biases in information processing. An infinitely-lived decision maker receives a sequence of signals which provide partial information about the true “state of the world”; when this process terminates, which happens with probability η after each signal, he makes a decision and earns a payoff which depends on the true state. The agent ...
