A New Peptide Input to Learning and Addiction
نویسنده
چکیده
In this issue of Neuron, Borgland et al. report that the arousal-associated peptide orexin enhances LTP-like changes in glutamatergic excitability of ventral tegmental dopamine neurons. This parallels a similar effect of corticotropin-releasing factor and suggests a form of neuroadaptation that increases the likelihood of addiction relapse.

متن کاملThe Time Adaptive Self Organizing Map for Distribution Estimation
The feature map represented by the set of weight vectors of the basic SOM (Self-Organizing Map) provides a good approximation to the input space from which the sample vectors come. But the timedecreasing learning rate and neighborhood function of the basic SOM algorithm reduce its capability to adapt weights for a varied environment. In dealing with non-stationary input distributions and changi...
متن کاملUtilizing a new feed-back fuzzy neural network for solving a system of fuzzy equations
This paper intends to offer a new iterative method based on articial neural networks for finding solution of a fuzzy equations system. Our proposed fuzzied neural network is a ve-layer feedback neural network that corresponding connection weights to output layer are fuzzy numbers. This architecture of articial neural networks, can get a real input vector and calculates its corresponding fuzzy o...
متن کاملTowards a definition of intake in second language acquisition
Intake is a concept that has long fascinated second language researchers as it provides a window onto the crucial intermediary stage between input and acquisition. A better understanding of this intermediary stage can help us to distinguish between input that is used for immediate (e.g. communicative) purposes only and input that is drawn on for learning. This articl...
متن کاملAffordances and limitations of technology: Voices from EFL teachers and learners
With the developments of new technologies appearing very quickly, the attention has been focused more on technology than learning. English centers and institutes have mostly been busy accommodating new programs and technologies and hence have not spent enough time to evaluate the CALL programs and technologies employed to find their affordances and limitations. The present study was an attempt ...
