What would a theory look like?
- The Theory will Depend on:
- Neural Behaviour
- Network size and Topology
- What is presented, and in what order
- Learning Rule
- It should (in no particular order):
- Describe when initial CAs form
- Be capable of largely stable long term memory
- but enable new memories to form
The Mule Problem
- Give an idea about net saturation
- Describe when CAs are forgotten
The Bicycle Riding Problem
- Show the breadth of a category
- Say something about critical points in CA formation and
fractionation
- Say something about the size and behaviour of CAs
- Account for losing and gaining neurons and synapses
- Explain how to learn something rapidly
The Episodic Memory Problem
- Account for Hierarchical Categories
- Account for different types of CAs
