Sublexical, lexical and phonological short-term memory processes: Evaluating models of speech perception and short-term memory
… relation of speech perception to phonological short-term memory (pSTM). Contrary to traditional models which assume that sublexical processing necessarily precedes lexical processing (e.g., McClelland & Elman, 1986; Norris, 1994), several studies have demonstrated that patients may perform …

Spatial Distortions in Visual Short-Term Memory
… genaue Position eines Zielpunktes auf dem Computermonitor nach einem kurzen Behaltensintervall reproduzieren. Dabei stellt sich heraus, daß ihre Erinnerung systematisch durch zusätzliche visuelle Landmarken verzerrt wird, die als räumliche Referenz dienen. Landmarken bilden Regionen hoher …

Short-Term Memory for Temporal and Spatial Order Information
… theoretical and experimental comparisons of short-term memory for temporal and spatial order information. Two questions are of central interest: whether short-term memory for letter sequences is limited to a verbal-acoustic coding process and whether the loss of information from short-term …

Friction effects on collective mechanisms of short term memory
Short term memory is often correlated with persistent changes in neuronal firing rates in response to transient inputs. This thesis models the persistent maintenance of an analog eye position signal by an oculomotor neural integrator receiving transient eye movement commands. We show analytically …

The Effects of Caffeine and Expectancy on Short Term Memory
… caffeine on mental performance tasks (especially short term memory tasks) is inconclusive. One possible explanation for this limited understanding is the lack of studies accounting for participant expectancy surrounding caffeine. This study examined the effects of caffeine dosage (0mg, 200mg, and …

Links between Short-Term Memory and Word Retrieval in Aphasia
… a topic of recent research in aphasia is verbal short-term memory, or the temporary, limited-capacity storage mechanism through which information is briefly retained. A typical measure of verbal short-term memory is an immediate repetition span task: individuals listen to a list of digits or …

AN INVESTIGATION OF SELECTIVE REMEMBERING IN AUDITORY SHORT-TERM MEMORY
… ability to pick out wanted from unwanted items intermixed in the same spoken message. In Experiments 1-4, subjects tried to remember a list of words heard under (a) a no-distraction condition, in which no other words were presented; (b) a precuing condition, in which the to-be-remembered words …

The Effect of Caffeine and Choline on Short-term Memory
This study sought to determine whether caffeine combined with choline could improve short-term memory in healthy adults. The study tested the effect of choline (2 gm) alone and in combination with several concentrations of caffeine (25 mg, 50mg and 100mg) on short-term verbal and visual memory and …

Micro-affordances in visual mental imagery and visual short-term memory
… of these effects is that they have been shown to terminate once an object is removed from view (Tucker and Ellis, 2001). This thesis describes eight experiments that examine the presence of micro-affordance effects during off-line visual processing. All eight experiments employ a stimulus-response …

Long short-term memory neural networks for predicting corporate credit ratings
… The existing literature shows that long short-term memory (LSTM) neural networks are the best neural network to predict credit ratings, while random forests have been shown to perform better than regular neural networks. As at the beginning of this study, no study had compared the …

The Role of Temporal Distraction on Short-Term Memory and Delayed Recognition
<p>Memory is a complex process that requires the translation of information from an external sensory experience into an internal representation. Once information has been translated into memory, there is little agreement regarding the cognitive structure of memory storage and maintenance. Baddeley …

Biological applications, visualizations, and extensions of the long short-term memory network
… techniques for analysing sequences is the long short-term memory (LSTM) network. Owing to significant barriers to adoption in biology, focussed efforts are required to realize the use of LSTMs in practice. Thus, the aim of this work is to improve the state of LSTMs for biology, and we focus on …

Spiking and oscillatory correlates of visual short-term memory for multiple items
… mechanisms give rise to these limits to visual short-term memory capacity. Here, we measured neural activity in a change localization task, in which monkeys viewed two displays of multiple colored squares separated by a brief delay, and made a saccade to the square that changed color between …

The effect of interference and time on forgetting in visual short-term memory
‘Memory’ is a flexible cognitive system, adapting to suit the specific needs of the individual. Creating and losing memories helps to maintain the harmony of a complex set of neurological processes. However, the reason for losing memories has led to a contentious debate, especially in short-term …
