Lifetime and Stability in Line Attractor Networks of Short-term Memory
نویسندگان
چکیده
Line attractor networks have long served as the standard model of short-term memory systems for analogue variables. In this study, we investigate the stability of attractor states for a line attractor with monotonic tuning curves. We furthermore quantify the stability of network states against noise and show how the lifetime of short-term memory states depends on the level of neural noise.

Attractor networks.
An attractor network is a network of neurons with excitatory interconnections that can settle into a stable pattern of firing. This article shows how attractor networks in the cerebral cortex are important for long-term memory, short-term memory, attention, and decision making. The article then shows how the random firing of neurons can influence the stability of these networks by introducing s...

Modern neuroscientific research help to solve the impotent challenge in curriculum design and teaching for enhancing students’ ability to organize information in a way that makes it efficient in response to an appropriate context such as problem solving and critical thinking via knowing about the mechanism of different type of memories especially long term memory. At first, we should to c...
متن کاملStatistical Fluctuations in Attractor Networks Related to Schizophrenia
We present a hypothesis of how the positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia could be related to alterations in the stability of cortical networks which lead to a reduced signal-to-noise ratio. We analyze using integrateand-fi re simulations of attractor networks how some of the symptoms of schizophrenia could be related to a reduced depth of basins of attraction, produced by ...

Accurate flood forecasting is a vital need to reduce its risks. Due to the complicated structure of flood and river flow, it is somehow difficult to solve this problem. Artificial neural networks, such as frequent neural networks, offer good performance in time series data. In recent years, the use of Long Short Term Memory networks hase attracted much attention due to the faults of frequent ne...

Abstract Background: Diabetes is a common disease that is characterized by hyperglycemia or High blood sugar. Central neuropathic is one of the most common Diabetic complications.The increase of blood sugar levels can cause adverse effects on cognitive functions such as information processing speed, memory, and the learning. The aim of this study was to assess short term memory function in pa...
