Gamma Synchronization Influences Map Formation Time in a Topological Model of Spatial Learning
The mammalian hippocampus plays a crucial role in producing a cognitive map of space-an internalized representation of the animal's environment. We have previously shown that it is possible to model this map formation using a topological framework, in which information about the environment is transmitted through the temporal organization of neuronal spiking activity, particularly those occasio...
متن کاملTopological Schemas of Memory Spaces
Hippocampal cognitive map—a neuronal representation of the spatial environment—is broadly discussed in the computational neuroscience literature for decades. More recent studies point out that hippocampus plays a major role in producing yet another cognitive framework that incorporates not only spatial, but also nonspatial memories—the memory space. However, unlike cognitive maps, memory spaces...
متن کاملA Topological Paradigm for Hippocampal Spatial Map Formation Using Persistent Homology
An animal's ability to navigate through space rests on its ability to create a mental map of its environment. The hippocampus is the brain region centrally responsible for such maps, and it has been assumed to encode geometric information (distances, angles). Given, however, that hippocampal output consists of patterns of spiking across many neurons, and downstream regions must be able to trans...
متن کاملTopological mapping of space in bat hippocampus
Mammalian hippocampus plays a key role in spatial learning and memory, but the exact nature of the hippocampal representation of space is still being explored. Recently, there has been a fair amount of success in modeling hippocampal spatial maps in rats, assuming a topological perspective on spatial information processing. In this paper, we use the topological model to study 3D learning in bat...
متن کاملFrom movement to transitivity: the role of hippocampal parallel maps in configural learning.
Whether spatial learning is a special case of configural or relational learning, or whether abstract principles evolved from the concrete need to navigate in space, is a question of long-standing debate. The parallel map theory of hippocampal function offers a resolution of the debate by redefining 'spatial learning' as two parallel, geometric processes, Euclidean metric and topological. Moreov...
