Compressed timeline of recent experience in monkey lateral prefrontal cortex
(MIT PRESS, 2018-07-01)Cognitive theories suggest that working memory maintains not only the identity of recently presented stimuli but also a sense of the elapsed time since the stimuli were presented. Previous studies of the neural underpinnings ... -
Is working memory stored along a logarithmic timeline? Converging evidence from neuroscience, behavior and models
(2018-09)A growing body of evidence suggests that short-term memory does not only store the identity of recently experienced stimuli, but also information about when they were presented. This representation of 'what' happened 'when' ... -
Human episodic memory retrieval is accompanied by a neural contiguity effect
(SOC NEUROSCIENCE, 2018-04-25)Cognitive psychologists have long hypothesized that experiences are encoded in a temporal context that changes gradually over time. When an episodic memory is retrieved, the state of context is recovered—a jump back in ... -
Neural scaling laws for an uncertain world
(American Psychological Association, 2018)Autonomous neural systems must efficiently process information in a wide range of novel environments, which may have very different statistical properties. We consider the problem of how to optimally distribute receptors along ... -
Evidence accumulation in a Laplace domain decision space
(2018)Evidence accumulation models of simple decision-making have long assumed that the brain estimates a scalar decision variable corresponding to the log likelihood ratio of the two alternatives. Typical neural implementations ... -
Temporal and spatial context in the mind and brain
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2017-10-01)Theories of episodic memory have long hypothesized that recollection of a specific instance from one's life is mediated by recovery of a neural state of spatiotemporal context. This paper reviews recent theoretical advances ... -
Adults with autism discuss their experiences of foreign language learning: an exploration of the "different strategies" hypothesis
(2018-11-10)How do persons who self-identify as having autism report their experience of second/foreign language learning? We propose a "different strategies" hypothesis: autistic individuals with verbal abilities will use their ... -
Language learning following immigration: modeling choices and challenges
(Springer, 2019-09)No agent-based model exists of language learning following immigration to a new country. Language learning has features that make it a good fit to ABMs, such as diffusion/adoption effects: people learn language via social ... -
Central thalamic inactivation impairs the expression of action- and outcome-related responses of medial prefrontal cortex neurons in the rat
The mediodorsal (MD) and adjacent intralaminar (IL) and midline nuclei provide the main thalamic input to the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and are critical for associative learning and decision‐making. MD neurons exhibit ...
