Exploring the role of structure in a time constrained decision task
Naomi Chaix-Eichel, Gautham Venugopal, Thomas Boraud +1
The structure of the basal ganglia is remarkably similar across a number of species (often described in terms of direct, indirect and hyperdirect pathways) and is deeply involved i…
From implicit learning to explicit representations
Naomi Chaix-Eichel, Snigdha Dagar, Quentin Lanneau +4
Using the reservoir computing framework, we demonstrate how a simple model can solve an alternation task without an explicit working memory. To do so, a simple bot equipped with se…
Randomized Self Organizing Map
Nicolas P. Rougier, Georgios Is. Detorakis
We propose a variation of the self organizing map algorithm by considering the random placement of neurons on a two-dimensional manifold, following a blue noise distribution from w…
Transfer between long-term and short-term memory using Conceptors
Anthony Strock, Nicolas Rougier, Xavier Hinaut
We introduce a recurrent neural network model of working memory combining short-term and long-term components. e short-term component is modelled using a gated reservoir model that…
Neuromorphic hardware as a self-organizing computing system
Lyes Khacef, Bernard Girau, Nicolas Rougier +2
This paper presents the self-organized neuromorphic architecture named SOMA. The objective is to study neural-based self-organization in computing systems and to prove the feasibil…
A graphical, scalable and intuitive method for the placement and the connection of biological cells
Nicolas P. Rougier
We introduce a graphical method originating from the computer graphics domain that is used for the arbitrary and intuitive placement of cells over a two-dimensional manifold. Using…
A computational approach to the covert and overt deployment of spatial attention
Jérémy Fix, Nicolas P. Rougier, Frédéric Alexandre
Popular computational models of visual attention tend to neglect the influence of saccadic eye movements whereas it has been shown that the primates perform on average three of the…
A Computational Model of Spatial Memory Anticipation during Visual Search
Jérémy Fix, Julien Vitay, Nicolas Rougier
Some visual search tasks require to memorize the location of stimuli that have been previously scanned. Considerations about the eye movements raise the question of how we are able…
