objective: cognitive factors are the important correlates of reading disorder and their impairments are established in children with reading disorder. neurofeedback as an intervention has been reported to be useful in improvement of cognitive deficits. the present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of this treatment on attentiveness and working memory and related electroencephalographic...

Explicit measures of human memory, such as recall or recognition, reflect conscious recollection of the past. Implicit tests of retention measure transfer (or priming) from past experience on tasks that do not require conscious recollection of recent experiences for their performance. The article reviews research on the relation between explicit and implicit memory. The evidence points to subst...

The hippocampus is crucial for conscious, explicit memory, but whether it is also involved in nonconscious, implicit memory is uncertain. We investigated with functional magnetic resonance imaging whether implicit learning engages the hippocampus and interacts with subsequent explicit learning. The presentation of subliminal faces-written profession pairs for implicit learning was followed by t...

In incidental learning situations, contingencies are extracted from the environment without the intention to learn and can change behavior without awareness for the extracted regularity. The development of explicit access to the learned regularity is an important learning mechanism that is rarely examined. With a series of behavioral, electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonan...

In many scenarios, quickly solving a relatively small search problem with an arbitrary start and arbitrary goal state is important (e.g., GPS navigation). In order to speed this process, we introduce a new class of memorybased heuristics, called true distance heuristics, that store true distances between some pairs of states in the original state space can be used for a heuristic between any pa...

The reduced verbal long-term memory capacities often reported in dyslexics are generally interpreted as a consequence of their deficit in phonological coding.The present study was aimed at evaluating whether the learning deficit exhibited by dyslexics was restricted only to the verbal component of the long-term memory abilities or also involved visual-object and visual-spatial domain. A further...

| We investigate new techniques for reducing the memory requirements of an on-they model checking tool that employs explicit enumera-tion. Two techniques are studied in depth: exploiting symmetries in the model, and exploiting sequential regions in the model. These techniques can result in a signiicant reduction in memory requirements, and often nd progress violations at much lower stack depths...
