Astrocytic glutamate uptake coordinates experience-dependent, eye-specific refinement in developing visual cortex

This study shows that astrocytic glutamate uptake via GLT1 is essential for experience-dependent refinement of ipsilateral eye inputs in the visual cortex, with disruptions causing altered binocular matching and plasticity.

Learning attention-controllable border-ownership for objectness inference and binding

This paper introduces a model called CMRF that learns attention-controllable border-ownership representations for perceptual grouping and object inference in novel scenes.

Learning cognitive maps for vicarious evaluation

This paper introduces a cognitive graph structure called CSCG to model how the hippocampus forms abstract cognitive maps, explaining various cognitive phenomena and place cell behaviors.

Different clones for different contexts: Hippocampal cognitive maps as higher-order graphs of a cloned HMM

This paper introduces a cloned HMM to model hippocampal cognitive maps as higher-order graphs, showing it captures key properties of hippocampal cells in rodents and humans.

Memorize-Generalize: An online algorithm for learning higher-order sequential structure with cloned Hidden Markov Models

This paper introduces a biologically plausible learning algorithm for Cloned HMMs that enables rapid memorization and gradual generalization of higher-order sequential structures.

Reliable sensory processing in mouse visual cortex through inhibitory interactions between Somatostatin and Parvalbumin interneurons

The paper identifies an inhibitory circuit between somatostatin and parvalbumin interneurons that modulates the reliability of pyramidal neuron responses to visual stimuli, improving stimulus discrimination.
