A Dual Role for Hippocampal Replay
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hippocampal place cells are active when the rat is at certain locations. The sequence of these active place cells is known to be rapidly replayed during sharp-wave-ripple events in the EEG. In this issue of Neuron, a study by Gupta et al. challenges previous notions that the replayed trajectories are solely a passive echo of past episodes. Rather, replay might also be an active process constructing a Tolmanian cognitive map of space, which makes flexible navigation possible.

Hippocampal replay captures the unique topological structure of a novel environment.
Hippocampal place-cell replay has been proposed as a fundamental mechanism of learning and memory, which might support navigational learning and planning. An important hypothesis of relevance to these proposed functions is that the information encoded in replay should reflect the topological structure of experienced environments; that is, which places in the environment are connected with which...
متن کاملThe Temporal and Bilateral Structure of Hippocampal Replay
The hippocampus is required for the formation, but not storage, of long-term episodic memories. During memory formation, however, the hippocampus is not a lone actor; rather it works in concert with various structures across the brain. The mechanisms by which diverse populations of cells are coordinated for the formation of a single, coherent memory remain unknown. This thesis is an investigati...
متن کاملThe Role of Hippocampal Replay in Memory and Planning
The mammalian hippocampus is important for normal memory function, particularly memory for places and events. Place cells, neurons within the hippocampus that have spatial receptive fields, represent information about an animal's position. During periods of rest, but also during active task engagement, place cells spontaneously recapitulate past trajectories. Such 'replay' has been proposed as ...
متن کاملHippocampal replay contributes to within session learning in a temporal difference reinforcement learning model
Temporal difference reinforcement learning (TDRL) algorithms, hypothesized to partially explain basal ganglia functionality, learn more slowly than real animals. Modified TDRL algorithms (e.g. the Dyna-Q family) learn faster than standard TDRL by practicing experienced sequences offline. We suggest that the replay phenomenon, in which ensembles of hippocampal neurons replay previously experienc...
متن کاملA Unified Dynamic Model for Learning, Replay, and Sharp-Wave/Ripples.
UNLABELLED Hippocampal activity is fundamental for episodic memory formation and consolidation. During phases of rest and sleep, it exhibits sharp-wave/ripple (SPW/R) complexes, which are short episodes of increased activity with superimposed high-frequency oscillations. Simultaneously, spike sequences reflecting previous behavior, such as traversed trajectories in space, are replayed. Whereas ...
