Decomposing memory: functional assignments and brain traffic in paired word associate learning

Queuing Network Modeling of Transcription Typing

“…However, learning mechanisms did not exist in the previous version of QN-MHP. These two points are consistent with the findings in neuroscience [Bullock 1968;Eagleman et al 2004;Smith and Jonides 1998;Taylor et al 2000;Braus 2004;Chklovskii et al 2004;Habib 2003]. • Typing (different keyboards) • Listening (speaker)…”

“…On the one hand, the "brain traffic" concept in neuroscience suggests that information flow represented by spike trains in the brain exhibit features of traffic flow in the network; spike trains (represented by entities in the model) form the information flow among brain regions. Depending on different tasks and learning stages, these information flows can sometimes be processed immediately by the brain regions (servers), but sometimes they have to be maintained in certain regions to wait for the previous flow to be processed [Bullock 1968;Eagleman et al 2004;Smith and Jonides 1998;Taylor et al 2000;Braus 2004;Chklovskii et al 2004;Habib 2003]. On the other hand, different brain areas are activated during the visual-motor learning process Petersen et al 1998;Aizawa et al 1991].…”

Cortical Thinning in Patients with Recent Onset Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder after a Single Prolonged Trauma Exposure

“…It has been also reported that precuneus (located in the parietal lobe) is associated with source memory processing [45]. Especially, the left precuneus is related to mental imagery and posterior buffer working memory [10], [46]. Based on functional neuroimaging studies, diminished activity in left parietal lobe [47] and precuneus [48] was identified in patients with chronic PTSD.…”

Queuing Network Modeling of a Real-Time Psychophysiological Index of Mental Workload—P300 in Event-Related Potential (ERP)

“…Furthermore, it has been discovered that information processed in the brain is coded in population spike trains [45]; depending on different tasks and learning stages, the to-be-processed information represented by these spike trains is sometimes processed by the brain regions (servers) immediately. Sometimes, they have to be maintained in certain regions to wait for the previous spike trains finishing their processing [46]. Hence, these spike trains can be regarded as one type of entity in the queuing network.…”
