Can a creature with one cell and no brain still learn from experience? A growing body of biology suggests that the answer is ...

In 1897 Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov proved that animals can be trained using associative learning. A new study finds ...

More than a century ago, Pavlov trained his dog to associate the sound of a bell with food. Ever since, scientists assumed the dog learned this through repetition: The more times the dog heard the ...

Abstract: Memristive associative learning has gained significant attention for its ability to mimic fundamental biological learning mechanisms while maintaining system simplicity. In this work, we ...

Tsukuba, Japan—Everyday behaviors, such as braking at a red light or opening an app upon seeing a notification, are shaped by associative learning, wherein the brain links sensory cues to motor ...

The cerebellum facilitates associative learning—wherein visual information is linked to motor actions—by strengthening sustained visual responses. Researchers at the University of Tsukuba have ...

In the old understanding, which goes back to Aristotle, associations are activity-conducting connections between ideas, nodes or neurons. It’s an ontological mistake; an association is a readily ...

ABSTRACT: Traumatic events, such as sexual/physical assaults and motor vehicle accidents, frequently involve individuals who are under the influence of alcohol. Research suggests that peri-traumatic ...

The bird has never gotten much credit for being intelligent. But the reinforcement learning powering the world’s most advanced AI systems is far more pigeon than human. In 1943, while the world’s ...
