Hierarchical organization of cognitive memory

Hierarchical organization of cognitive memory.

This paper addresses the question of the organization of memory processes within the medial temporal lobe. Evidence obtained in patients with late-onset amnesia resulting from medial temporal pathology has given rise to two opposing interpretations of the effects of such damage on long-term cognitive memory. One view is that cognitive memory, including memory for both facts and events, is serve...

Hierarchical organization versus self-organization

In this paper we try to define the difference between hierarchical organization and selforganization. Organization is defined as a structure with a function. So we can define the difference between hierarchical organization and self-organization both on the structure as on the function. In the next two chapters these two definitions are given. For the structure we will use some existing definit...

Hierarchical Sequential Memory for Music: A Cognitive Model

We propose a new machine-learning framework called the Hierarchical Sequential Memory for Music, or HSMM. The HSMM is an adaptation of the Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) framework, designed to make it better suited to musical applications. The HSMM is an online learner, capable of recognition, generation, continuation, and completion of musical structures.

Hierarchical organization of cartilage proteoglycans.

The hierarchical organization of cartilage proteoglycans is investigated on different length and time scales using osmotic pressure measurements, small angle neutron scattering (SANS), small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), static and dynamic light scattering and neutron spin echo techniques. Osmotic pressure measurements reveal association of aggrecan bottlebrushes into microgel-like assemblies....
