Distributed associative memory
… codes and Bloom filters to create high-capacity associative memories. These associative memories use principled statistical inference and are distributed as no single component contains enough information to complete the task by itself, yet the components can collectively solve the task by …

Sequels and SAMs: Re-contextualized Media and Affective Memory
… this grand narrative, I argue that there are memories that, like the singular, are not consumer-based. I refer to these as <em>staple associative memories (SAMs)</em>. These are not memories of the audiovisual art but are associated with the social component attached to the viewing experience. …

Locomotion : a railroad museum for Chattanooga
… It is about exploring a landscape rich with associative memories. Through the design of a railroad museum on abandoned railroad lines in Chattanooga, Tennessee, this thesis seeks to define an architecture that is integrated with the industrial landscape in an interdependent relationship. …

Neural architectures for database query processing, syntax analysis, knowledge representation, and inference
… symbolic computations for content-based associative symbolic processing. This offers an opportunity to explore the potential benefits of ANN's inherent parallelism in the design of high performance computing systems for real time content-based symbolic processing applications. We develop …

The Dissociation of Sensory Integration and Associative Learning in Caenorhabditis elegans and the Molecular Mechanisms Leading to Memory Acquisition
The study of associative learning in C. elegans takes advantage of a genetically tractable organism with a fully mapped connectome, and with a simple nervous system compared with that of mammals. A learning deficient mutant found in a mutagenesis screen, lrn-2, was characterized and mapped to the …

Installation Art and Memory: A Practice-As-Research Exploration
… to the external physical environment and their associative memories stimulated by the affective fragmented properties of the work.

Dissection of Deep Neural Networks
… method can be used to rewrite several individual associative memories in a Progressive GAN or StyleGAN, altering learned rules that govern the appearance of specific object parts in the model.

Are Associations All You Need? Overcoming the Problem of One-to-Many Association and Nonlinear Relationships with Contiguity in a Bidirectional Associative Memory Framework
… model. It focused on using recurrent neural associative memories, specifically, a biological and cognitively plausible Bidirectional Associative Memory framework. The objective was to overcome its current limitations in learning one-to-many associations and nonlinear relationships. It …

The n-tuple network: coping with sub-optimality
… of well established general models such as: Associative Memories, Kamerva's Sparse Distributed Memory, Radial Basis Functions, General Regression Networks and Bayesian Classifiers. We then benchmark binary RAMnet. model against 23 other algorithms using real-world data from the StatLog …

Non-Canonical Axonal Insulin Receptor Signaling Drives Aversive Olfactory Learning
… function of the nervous system is to form associative memories. A simple model of associative learning is provided by nematode C. elegans, which can form memories of different types of odor stimuli through its simple yet sophisticated nervous system. C. elegans uses its sensory neurons to …

Automatic Car Registration Plate Recognition Using the Hough Transform
… (Lotufo, et al. 1990), BAM (Bi-directional Associative Memories) neural network (Fahmy 1994) neural network (Tindall, 1995) and cross correlation pattern matching character matching techniques (Cornelli, et al. 1995). All of these systems recognized the characters by matching the full image …

The role of the kappa opioid receptor system in forebrain dependent associative learning
… involved in the acquisition and consolidation of memories. While these studies have provided valuable insight into the role of MOR in learning, researchers have recently begun to elucidate a role for the kappa opioid receptor (KOR) with learning. Previous reports have demonstrated that KOR and its …

Effects of attention on the precision of neural and mnemonic representations in healthy ageing
… of age-related attentional dysregulation on associative binding and the fidelity of associative memories at encoding. I also explore the effects of selective attention and non-invasive stimulation on age-related retrieval precision using continuous-report tasks. Chapter 2 examines the …

Crystalline and glassy states of ultracold atomic systems
… means of a mapping to a variant of the Hopfield associative-memory model that such systems exhibit a spin-glass phase. Finally, we consider a different ultracold-atomic setting---that of spin-orbit-coupled Bose gases---in which the Brazovskii effect has a profound influence on the low-temperature …
