The ability to form memories is a basic feature of learning and accumulating knowledge. But where is memory information stored in the brain? Within the scientific research community, it is generally believed that memory information is…

Within the scientific research community, memory information in the brain is commonly believed to be stored in the synapse - a hypothesis famously attributed to psychologist Donald Hebb. However, there is a growing minority who postulate…

The most widely accepted view of memory in the brain holds that synapses are the storage sites of memory, and that memories are formed through associative modification of synapses. This view has been challenged on conceptual and empirical…

The question of continuous-versus-discrete information representation in the brain is a fundamental yet unresolved question. Historically, most analyses assume a continuous representation without considering the discrete alternative. Our…

As a follow-up tutorial article of [29], in this paper, we will introduce the basic compositional units of the human brain, which will further illustrate the cell-level bio-structure of the brain. On average, the human brain contains about…

Models of the mind are based on the possibility of computing in brain microtubules. From this point of view, information processing is the fundamental issue for understanding the brain mechanisms that produce consciousness. The cytoskeleton…

How we store information in our mind has been a major intriguing open question. We approach this question not from a physiological standpoint as to how information is physically stored in the brain, but from a conceptual and algorithm…

Memory is a complex phenomenon that involves several distinct mechanisms. These mechanisms operate at different spatial and temporal levels. This chapter focuses on the theoretical framework and the mathematical models that have been…

Short-term memory in the brain cannot in general be explained the way long-term memory can -- as a gradual modification of synaptic weights -- since it takes place too quickly. Theories based on some form of cellular bistability, however,…

What is the physiological basis of long-term memory? The prevailing view in neuroscience attributes changes in synaptic efficacy to memory acquisition. This view implies that stable memories correspond to stable connectivity patterns.…

Memories in the brain are separated in two categories: short-term and long-term memories. Long-term memories remain for a lifetime, while short-term ones exist from a few milliseconds to a few minutes. Within short-term memory studies,…

The standard model of memory consolidation foresees that memories are initially recorded in the hippocampus, while features that capture higher-level generalisations of data are created in the cortex, where they are stored for a possibly…

Neocortical neurons have thousands of excitatory synapses. It is a mystery how neurons integrate the input from so many synapses and what kind of large-scale network behavior this enables. It has been previously proposed that non-linear…

Human memory -- the learning of new information involves changes at the synaptic level between neurons dedicated for storage of in-formation. Generally, memory is classified as Long-Term Memory and Short-Term Memory. The various types of…

The fundamental, powerful process of computation in the brain has been widely misunderstood. The paper [1] associates the general failure to build intelligent thinking machines with current reductionist principles of temporal coding and…

We have recognized that 2D codes, i.e., a group of strongly connected neurosomes that can be simultaneously excited, are the basic data carriers for memory in a brain. An echoing mechanism between two neighboring layers of neurosomes is…

We study the learning of an external signal by a neural network and the time to forget it when this network is submitted to noise. The presentation of an external stimulus to the recurrent network of binary neurons may change the state of…

Studies investigating neural information processing often implicitly ask both, which processing strategy out of several alternatives is used and how this strategy is implemented in neural dynamics. A prime example are studies on predictive…

While information processing in complex systems can be described in abstract, general terms, there are cases in which the relation between these computations and the physical substrate of the underlying system is itself of interest.…

There is evidence that biological synapses have only a fixed number of discrete weight states. Memory storage with such synapses behaves quite differently from synapses with unbounded, continuous weights as old memories are automatically…
