• Compressive Transformers for Long-Range Sequence Modelling (2019, background): “We aggressively select, filter, or integrate input stimuli based on factors of surprise, perceived danger, or repetition — amongst other signals (Richards and Frankland, 2017).”
• Human Hippocampal Neurogenesis Persists throughout Aging (2018, neutral): “Persistent AHN is vital for preserving cognitive flexibility and allowing memory-guided decision-making without the interference of irrelevant outdated information (Richards and Frankland, 2017).”
• Incorporating neuro-inspired adaptability for continual learning in artificial intelligence (2023, neutral): “For biological neural networks, active forgetting is able to remove outdated information and provide flexibility for adapting to a new memory 19,27,28 .”
• A Unified and General Framework for Continual Learning (2024, background): “On one hand, forgetting can be beneficial for the human brain in various situations, as it helps in efficient information processing and decision-making (Davis & Zhong, 2017; Richards & Frankland, 2017; Gravitz, 2019; Wang et al., 2023b).”
• Distinct dopamine receptor pathways underlie the temporal sensitivity of associative learning (2019, background): “Prior work in both Drosophila and mammals has suggested memory retention is regulated by multiple mechanisms at different timescales (Bouton, 2002; Davis and Zhong, 2017; Richards and Frankland, 2017).”
• Active Protection: Learning-Activated Raf/MAPK Activity Protects Labile Memory from Rac1-Independent Forgetting. (2018, unknown): “Since then, extensive studies have been devoted to the characterization of forgetting in psychology (Wixted, 2004), but few to elucidate the biological nature of forgetting, particularly for fast-decaying memory (Davis and Zhong, 2017; Richards and Frankland, 2017).”
