This paper demonstrates a biologicallyand psychologicallyinspired human-like computational memory focusing on the retrieval mechanisms – Spreading Activation and Compound Cue for a companion agent’s episodic memory (EM) that helps the agent to manage it’s memory more efficiently and enable it to have a more natural interaction with the user.

flood spreading has an effective role in the soil improvement and fertility, ground water storage, revival of vegetation and prevention of fluent sands movement. one of the main problem of flood spreading projects is the entrance of sediment to the spreading systems and sedimentation in it. sediment reduces the efficiency of the flood spreading system and after awhile lose its efficiency.the ma...

cortical spreading depression (csd) are associated with dramatic failure of brain ion homeostasis, efflux of excitatory amino acids from nerve cells, increased energy metabolism and changes in cerebral blood flow. there is strong clinical and experimental evidence to suggest that csd is involved in the mechanism of migraine, stroke, subarachnoid hemorrhage and traumatic brain injury. therefore,...

objective headache is a frequent symptom in children and adolescents. migraine is one of the most common types of primary headache disorders in children that at times can be extremely disabling. many clinical features of migraine in children differ from that starting in adulthood. this review discusses the epidemiology,clinical features, management, and prognosis of migraine headache in childre...

Results of cognitive psychology research are analysed to explain why it is diicult for retrieval system users to bring to mind alternative search terms. A human memory model is modiied in such a way that it produces additional search terms instead of human associations. A small experiment shows that such a spreading activation network can nd alternative terms-with a performance similar to the n...

Research on the cognitive consequences of bilingualism suggests a bilingual advantage: early experience with more than one language predicts better inhibitory control of attention. The mechanisms responsible for this advantage, however, are not well understood. We ask whether depth and time-course of memory encoding may be responsible. We measured bilingual and monolingual adults’ memory for no...

The problem of deciding what is implied by a written text. of “reading between the lines” is the problem of text Inference. To extract proper inferences from a text requires a great deal of generol knowledge on the port of the reader. Past approaches have often used a “strong method” tuned to process a particular kind of knowledge structure (such OS a script, or a plan). The alternative is a “w...
