Hebbian Plasticity for Improving Perceptual Decisions

2016-12-10

Shibata et al. reported that humans could learn to repeatedly evoke a stimulus-associated functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) activity pattern in visual areas V1/V2 through which visual perceptual learning was achieved without stimulus presentation. Contrary to their attribution of visual improvements to neuroplasticity in adult V1/V2, our Hebbian learning interpretation of these data explains the attainment of better perceptual decisions without plastic V1/V2.

H-Mem: Harnessing synaptic plasticity with Hebbian Memory Networks

2020-12-01 · NeurIPS 2020 12 · Thomas Limbacher, Robert Legenstein

The ability to base current computations on memories from the past is critical for many cognitive tasks such as story understanding. Hebbian-type synaptic plasticity is believed to underlie the retention of memories over…

Hebbian Learning of Bayes Optimal Decisions

2008-12-01 · NeurIPS 2008 12 · Bernhard Nessler, Michael Pfeiffer, Wolfgang Maass

Uncertainty is omnipresent when we perceive or interact with our environment, and the Bayesian framework provides computational methods for dealing with it. Mathematical models for Bayesian decision making typically requ…

Theory of coupled neuronal-synaptic dynamics

In neural circuits, synaptic strengths influence neuronal activity by shaping network dynamics, and neuronal activity influences synaptic strengths through activity-dependent plasticity. Motivated by this fact, we study …

Response to Comment on 'Perceptual Learning Incepted by Decoded fMRI Neurofeedback Without Stimulus Presentation'; How can a decoded neurofeedback method (DecNef) lead to successful reinforcement and visual perceptual learning?

2016-12-13

Huang (arXiv:1612.03270) argues that the perceptual learning induced by our decoded neurofeedback method (DecNef) can be explained by Hebbian synaptic plasticity of connections between V1/V2 and V3/V4 rather than that wi…
