Class incremental continual learning aims to improve the ability of modern classification models continually recognize new classes without forgetting previous ones. Prior art in field has largely considered using a replay buffer. In this article, we start from an observation that existing replay-based method would fail when stored exemplars are not hard enough get good decision boundary between...

Recognition confidence and the explicit awareness of memory retrieval commonly accompany accurate responding in recognition tests. Memory performance in recognition tests is widely assumed to measure explicit memory, but the generality of this assumption is questionable. Indeed, whether recognition in nonhumans is always supported by explicit memory is highly controversial. Here we identified c...

The role of the hippocampus in recognition memory is controversial. Recognition memory judgments may be made using different types of information, including object familiarity, an object's spatial location, or when an object was encountered. Experiment 1 examined the role of the hippocampus in recognition memory tasks that required the animals to use these different types of mnemonic informatio...

background: airport workers are continuously exposed to different levels of radiofrequency microwave (rf/mw) radiation emitted by radar equipments. radars are extensively used in military and aviation industries. over the past several years, our lab has focused on the health effects of exposure to different sources of electromagnetic fields such as cellular phones, mobile base stations, mobile ...

Introduction: Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of streptozotocin (STZ) to rodents has been reported as an appropriate model for sporadic dementia of Alzheimer's type (SDAT), characterized by a progressive impairment of memory. However, very little or nothing is known about non-cognitive behavioral effects in the STZ model. This study was carried out in order to show the protective eff...

OBJECTIVE Memory deficits in patients with frontal lobe lesions are most apparent on free recall tasks that require the selection, initiation, and implementation of retrieval strategies. The effect of frontal lesions on recognition memory performance is less clear with some studies reporting recognition memory impairments but others not. The majority of these studies do not directly compare rec...
