    Klinton Bicknell (kbicknell {at} berkeley.edu) Feb 2, 2005 Q: What did the hippocampus say during its retirement speech? A: “Thanks for the memories” Q: What happens when a neurotransmitter falls in love with a receptor? A: You get a binding relationship. Q: What did the Hollywood film director say after he finished making a movie about myelin? A: “That’s a wrap!” http://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/jokes.html

    Slide 2:Announcements

    a2 is out very shortly, due next Tuesday 11:59pm play with tlearn you can either run it on inst machines or download it and run on your pc get started early! new website: www.icsi.berkeley.edu/~klinton/class office hours: 3-4pm Wed. 1308 Dwinelle (in Ling Dept.) Quiz on Thursday

    Slide 3:Where we stand

    Last Week Neural development Basic idea of learning, Hebbs’ rule Connectionist representations This Week Psycholinguistics experiments Spreading Activation, triangle nodes Coming up Backprop (review your Calculus!)

    Slide 4:Quiz!

    What are the different types of memory? Why is Hebb’s rule not the complete story for the learning that goes on in the brain? What’s a McCullough-Pitts neuron? How does it work? What does the “They all rose” experiment show? How can you explain the results computationally?

    Slide 5:Two ways of looking at memory:

    Slide 6:Two ways of looking at memory:

    LTP (hours to days)

    Slide 7:Hebb’s Rule: neurons that fire together wire together Long Term Potentiation (LTP) is the biological basis of Hebb’s Rule Calcium channels is the key mechanism

    LTP and Hebb’s Rule

    Slide 8:Why is Hebb’s rule incomplete?

    here’s a contrived example: should you “punish” all the connections?

    Slide 9:The McCullough-Pitts Neuron

    yj: output from unit j Wij: weight on connection from j to i xi: weighted sum of input to unit i

    Slide 10:Let’s try an example: the OR function

    Assume you have a threshold function centered at the origin What should you set w01, w02 and w0b to be so that you can get the right answers for y0?

    Slide 11:Many answers would work

    y = f (w01i1 + w02i2 + w0bb) recall the threshold function the seperation happens when w01i1 + w02i2 + w0bb = 0 move things around and you get i2 = - (w01/w02)i1 - (w0bb/w02)

    Slide 12:for more information

    check the wikipedia: www.wikipedia.org

    Slide 13:“They all rose”

    triangle nodes: when two of the neurons fire, the third also fires model of spreading activation

    Slide 14:How we can model the triangle node with McCullough-Pitts Neurons?
