Research Abstract

I aim to study spontaneous activity in a biologically realistic memory model (SNN), focusing on the role of cell assemblies for encoding of sequential information (e.g. spatial trajectories), using only a limited number of samples. I will also explore if and how spontaneous activity can serve as a natural mechanism to counter catastrophic forgetting (loss learned information on exposure to new stimuli). I seek to demonstrate that a recurrent network using biologically plausible local learning rules can create durable memory traces, which could have practical applications for the future of AI.
