A model of object location memory
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a model of object location memory developed within the ACT-R cognitive architecture and compare the model’s performance to that of human participants in a modified version of the toy test. The results of the experiment reveal that the accuracy of location recall is significantly affected by both the number of objects in the set and the order in which objects are selected for relocation. The model provides a close fit to the human data and is able to account for the combined effects of set size and selection order found in the experiment using ACT-R’s declarative memory processes—in particular the similarity-based blending mechanism which combines the values of related memory elements to produced an aggregate response.

Effects of forced exercise on object location memory and anxiety behaviour in morphine dependent ovariectomized rats
Introduction: Previous findings from our laboratory indicated that exercise alleviates the deficits in cognitive and anxiety disorders in healthy female rats. But the effect of exercise on cognitive and anxiety disorders induced by chronic morphine in experimental monopose of rats (ovariectomized) not known. Aim of this study was to investigate the effects of mild and modorate forced exercise o...
متن کاملThe protective effect of hesperetin and nano-hesperetin on object recognition memory in animal model of Alzheimer
Background and objectives: Hesperetin (Hst), aglycone form of hesperidin, is reported to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective activities. On the other hand, the latest nanoparticle technology can help to improve the bioavailability of Hst, which is affected by the final particle size and stability. Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease, character...
متن کاملP1: Dextran Curcumin Promotes Novel Object Recognition Memory in Rats after Ischemic Stroke
Ischemic stroke causes the depletion of energy and induces excitotoxicity and neuroinflammation in the brain that results from thrombotic blockage. Cerebral ischemia leads to many types of memory loss, including impairment of working, spatial and object recognition memoreis. Curcumin shows strong anti-oxidoinflammatory activities but it terapathics limited by its low solubility in water and cor...
متن کاملApplication of Combined Local Object Based Features and Cluster Fusion for the Behaviors Recognition and Detection of Abnormal Behaviors
In this paper, we propose a novel framework for behaviors recognition and detection of certain types of abnormal behaviors, capable of achieving high detection rates on a variety of real-life scenes. The new proposed approach here is a combination of the location based methods and the object based ones. First, a novel approach is formulated to use optical flow and binary motion video as the loc...
متن کاملEffects of Moderate Treadmill Exercise and Fluoxetine on Spatial Memory, Anxiety, and Positive Tunnel Cells in the Hippocampus in a Rat Model of PTSD
Background and purpose: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a condition that develops after experiencing major trauma. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are first-line treatment for PTSD. This study aimed at investigating the effects of moderate treadmill exercise and fluoxetine on anxiety, spatial memory, and positive tunnel cells in the hippocampus in a rat model of PTSD. ...
متن کاملEffect of simvastatin on memory disorders and Hippocampal cell death in the model of the fetal alcoholic syndrome in male rats
Introduction: Exposure to ethanol as a neurotratogen in the developmental period has destructive effects on the central nervous system and causes neurological disorders in adulthood. These disorders are associated with apoptosis in areas of the brain such as the hippocampus, by activating the oxidative-inflammatory cascade and high levels of nerve degeneration. Simvastatin, used as a drug to tr...
