Structured connectionist models of inference and memory

  • SHRUTI: Shruti demonstrates how a neurally plausible system can encode a large body of semantic and episodic facts, entities and types, and rule-like mappings, and yet perform a wide range of inferences within a few hundred milliseconds.
  • SMRITI: SMRITI demonstrates how a transient pattern of activity representing an event can be rapidly transformed into a robust memory trace within the hippocampal system as a result of cortico-hippocampal interactions.
