New preprint from the lab and great work by Fei Wang. We show how subiculum trace vector cells can be modeled consistent with known effects in CA1. Traces are driven by a mismatch learning rule to keep associative memories in line with experience.

Dynamic updating of cognitive maps via traces of experience in the subiculum
In the classical view of hippocampal function, the subiculum is assigned the role as the output layer. In spatial paradigms, some subiculum neurons manifest as so-called boundary vector cells (BVCs), ...

🚨 New preprint! Impact of Task Similarity and Training Regimes on Cognitive Transfer and Interference 🧠 We compare humans and neural networks in a learning task, showing how training regime and task similarity interact to drive transfer or interference.

Impact of Task Similarity and Training Regimes on Cognitive Transfer and Interference

Happy to share our new preprint. We found that brain adaptively switches between relational and item-based coding strategies based on the structure of memory contents.
