--- abstract: 'An approach to episodic associative memory is presented, which has several desirable properties as a human memory model. The design is based on topological feature map representation of data. An ordinary feature map is a classifier, mapping an input vector onto a topologically meaningful location on the map. A trace feature map, in addition, creates a memory trace on that location. The traces can be stored episodically in a single presentation, and retrieved with a partial cue. Nearby traces overlap, which results in plausible memory interference behavior. Performance degrades gracefully as the memory is overloaded. More recent traces are easier to recall as are traces that are unique in the memory.' altloc: - http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/nn/pages/publications/memory.html - ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu/pub/neural-nets/papers/miikkulainen.trace-feature-map.pdf chapter: ~ commentary: ~ commref: ~ confdates: ~ conference: ~ confloc: ~ contact_email: ~ creators_id: [] creators_name: - family: Miikkulainen given: Risto honourific: '' lineage: '' date: 1992 date_type: published datestamp: 2001-11-18 department: ~ dir: disk0/00/00/18/95 edit_lock_since: ~ edit_lock_until: ~ edit_lock_user: ~ editors_id: [] editors_name: [] eprint_status: archive eprintid: 1895 fileinfo: /style/images/fileicons/application_postscript.png;/1895/2/tt.ps full_text_status: public importid: ~ institution: ~ isbn: ~ ispublished: pub issn: ~ item_issues_comment: [] item_issues_count: 0 item_issues_description: [] item_issues_id: [] item_issues_reported_by: [] item_issues_resolved_by: [] item_issues_status: [] item_issues_timestamp: [] item_issues_type: [] keywords: 'episodic memory, memory effects, one-shot storage, forgetting' lastmod: 2011-03-11 08:54:49 latitude: ~ longitude: ~ metadata_visibility: show note: ~ number: ~ pagerange: 273-282 pubdom: FALSE publication: Biological Cybernetics publisher: ~ refereed: TRUE referencetext: ~ relation_type: [] relation_uri: [] reportno: ~ rev_number: 10 series: ~ source: ~ status_changed: 2007-09-12 16:41:30 subjects: - comp-neuro-sci - comp-sci-neural-nets succeeds: ~ suggestions: ~ sword_depositor: ~ sword_slug: ~ thesistype: ~ title: |- Trace Feature Map: A Model of Episodic Associative Memory type: journalp userid: 438 volume: 66
