Abstract

The biological mechanisms underlying memory are complex and typically involve multiple molecular processes operating on timescales ranging from fractions of a second to years. The authors show using a mathematical model of synaptic plasticity and consolidation that this complexity can help explain the formidable memory capacity of biological systems.

Quick Reference

Top Notes

Benna-Fusi Model

  • Interesting model that I am having difficulty following,
  • Looks like they are able to dynamically separate meaningful time-scales
  • The time scale of plasticity is decided by this factor
  • The time separation factor emerges as a power law scaling
  • So they seem to broadly describe this feature but do not illustrate (afaik) an implementation
  • It might be nice to analyze this further in the future
