Mice learn these tasks and are robust to perturbations like fog. Now, we invite you all to make AI agents to beat mice.

We present our #NeurIPS competition. You can learn about it here: robustforaging.github.io (7/n)

"These findings validate core predictions of Spatial Computing by showing that oscillatory dynamics not only gate information in time but also shape where in the cortex cognitive content is represented."

Working memory control dynamics follow principles of spatial computing - Nature Communications
It is unclear how cognitive computations are performed on sensory information. Here, neural evidence from working memory tasks suggests that the physical dimensions of cortical networks are used to up...

I think the biological evidence points to this not being the case. We can see instances where synapses literally undergo a form of reverse plasticity, e.g. see here: www.cell.com/trends/cogni...

I think it cannot be assumed that we never wipe memories from our brains completely!

I love how this paper uses cortico-thalamic interactions(context switching) for continual learning.

Thalamus: a brain-inspired algorithm for biologically-plausible continual learning and disentangled representations
Animals thrive in a constantly changing environment and leverage the temporal structure to learn well-factorized causal representations. In contrast, traditional neural networks suffer from forgetting...
