Learning flexible sensori-motor mappings in a complex network
Given the complex structure of the brain, how can synaptic plasticity explain the learning and forgetting of associations when these are continuously changing? We address this question by studying different reinforcement learning rules in a multilayer netw ...
Springer Verlag2009Tag-Trigger-Consolidation: A Model of Early and Late Long-Term-Potentiation and Depression
Wulfram Gerstner, Eleni Vasilaki, Claudia Clopath, Lorric Ziegler
Changes in synaptic efficacies need to be long-lasting in order to serve as a substrate for memory. Experimentally, synaptic plasticity exhibits phases covering the induction of long-term potentiation and depression (LTP/LTD) during the early phase of syna ...
Public Library of Science2008Perceptual Learning via Modification of Cortical Top-Down Signals
The primary visual cortex (V1) is pre-wired to facilitate the extraction of behaviorally important visual features. Collinear edge detectors in V1, for instance, mutually enhance each other to improve the perception of lines against a noisy background. The ...
