Bodily self-consciousness as a framework to link sensory information and self-related components of episodic memory: behavioral, neuroimaging, and clinical evidence

The recollection of sensory information and subjective experience related to a personal past event depends on our episodic memory (EM). At the neural level, EM retrieval is linked with the reinstatement of hippocampal activity thought to recollect the sens ...

Explanation of Face Recognition via Saliency Maps

Touradj Ebrahimi, Yuhang Lu

Despite the significant progress in recent years, deep face recognition is often treated as a "black box" and has been criticized for lacking explainability. It becomes increasingly important to understand the characteristics and decisions of deep face rec ...

Hardware-Software co-design Methodologies for Edge AI Optimization

Flavio Ponzina

ML-based edge devices may face memory and computational errors that affect applications' reliability and performance. These errors can be the result of particular working conditions (e.g., radiation areas in physical experiments or avionics) or could be th ...

Plasticity of sensory representations in the posterior insular cortex during fear learning

Denys Osypenko

Aversively-motivated associative learning allows animals to avoid harm and thus ensures survival. Aversive learning can be studied by the fear learning paradigm, in which an innocuous sensory stimulus like a tone (conditioned stimulus, CS), acquires a nega ...

Towards Visual Saliency Explanations of Face Verification

Touradj Ebrahimi, Yuhang Lu, Zewei Xu

In the past years, deep convolutional neural networks have been pushing the frontier of face recognition (FR) techniques in both verification and identification scenarios. Despite the high accuracy, they are often criticized for lacking explainability. The ...

Hypothalamic pregnenolone mediates recognition memory in the context of metabolic disorders

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Ioannis Zalachoras, Sara Ramirez Flores

Obesity and type 2 diabetes are associated with cognitive dysfunction. Because the hypothalamus is implicated in energy balance control and memory disorders, we hypothesized that specific neurons in this brain region are at the interface of metabolism and ...

The HDAC inhibitor CI-994 acts as a molecular memory aid by facilitating synaptic and intracellular communication after learning

Johannes Gräff, Giulia Santoni, Allison Marie Burns, Jose Vicente Sanchez Mut

Long-term memory formation relies on synaptic plasticity, neuronal activity-dependent gene transcription, and epigenetic modifications. Multiple studies have shown that HDAC inhibitor (HDACi) treatments can enhance individual aspects of these processes and ...

An insular cortex - lateral amygdala network in fear learning

Shriya Palchaudhuri

Animals are capable of evaluating sensory cues for possible threats and adapting their behaviours accordingly. Fear learning is an evolutionarily conserved behaviour crucial for animal survival, during which sensory percepts with a negative reinforcing qua ...

A Novel Framework for Assessment of Deep Face Recognition Systems in Realistic Conditions

Touradj Ebrahimi, Yuhang Lu, Luca Barras

Deep convolutional neural networks have shown remarkable results on face recognition (FR). Despite their significant progress, the performance of current face recognition techniques is often assessed in benchmarks under not always realistic conditions. The ...

Kernel Memory Networks: A Unifying Framework for Memory Modeling

Wulfram Gerstner, Johanni Michael Brea, Georgios Iatropoulos

We consider the problem of training a neural network to store a set of patterns with maximal noise robustness. A solution, in terms of optimal weights and state update rules, is derived by training each individual neuron to perform either kernel classifica ...
