Recent work has revealed that state space models (SSMs), while efficient for long-sequence processing, are fundamentally limited in their ability to represent formal languages—particularly due to time-invariant and real-valued recurrence structures. In this work, we draw inspiration from adaptive an…
The energy paradigm, exemplified by Hopfield networks, offers a principled framework for memory in neural systems by interpreting dynamics as descent on an energy surface. While powerful for static associative memories, it falls short in modeling sequential memory, where transitions between memories…
Traveling waves are a fundamental phenomenon in the brain, playing a crucial role in short-term information storage. In this study, we leverage the concept of traveling wave dynamics within a neural lattice to formulate a theoretical model of neural working memory in Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs)…
The state-of-the-art memory model is the General Associative Memory Model, a generalization of the classical Hopfield network. Like its ancestor, the general associative memory has a well-defined state-dependant energy surface, and its memories correlate with its fixed points. This is unlike human m…
