Abstract: | |||||
Auto-associative network models have proven extremely useful in modelling the hypothesised function of the CA3 region of the hippocampus in declarative memory. To date, the majority of these models have made use of Hebbian plasticity rules mediated by correlations between mean firing rates. However, recent neurobiological evidence suggests that synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus, and many other cortical regions, also depends explicitly on the temporal relationship between afferent action potentials and efferent spiking - a phenomena known as spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP). Few attempts have been made to reconcile previous rate-coded Hebbian learning rules or auto-associative network function with this novel plasticity formulation.
