A ghost mechanism: An analytical model of abrupt learning in recurrent networks
Fatih Dinc, Ege Cirakman, Bariscan Kurtkaya +4
Abrupt learning is a common phenomenon in recurrent neural networks (RNNs) trained on working memory tasks. In such cases, the networks develop transient slow regions in state spac…
Path to Intelligence: Measuring Similarity between Human Brain and Large Language Model Beyond Language Task
Doai Ngo, Mingxuan Sun, Zhengji Zhang +3
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated human-like abilities in language-based tasks. While language is a defining feature of human intelligence, it emerges from more fundam…
Dynamical phases of short-term memory mechanisms in RNNs
Bariscan Kurtkaya, Fatih Dinc, Mert Yuksekgonul +7
Short-term memory is essential for cognitive processing, yet our understanding of its neural mechanisms remains unclear. Neuroscience has long focused on how sequential activity pa…
Latent computing by biological neural networks: A dynamical systems framework
Fatih Dinc, Marta Blanco-Pozo, David Klindt +8
Although individual neurons and neural populations exhibit the phenomenon of representational drift, perceptual and behavioral outputs of many neural circuits can remain stable acr…
Understanding and controlling the geometry of memory organization in RNNs
Udith Haputhanthri, Liam Storan, Yiqi Jiang +7
Training recurrent neural networks (RNNs) is a high-dimensional process that requires updating numerous parameters. Therefore, it is often difficult to pinpoint the underlying lear…
