Replay in Deep Learning: Current Approaches and Missing Biological Elements (2021, positive): “The consolidation phase is used for long-term storage of declarative, semantic, and procedural memories (Rasch & Born, 2013; Born, 2010; Stickgold, 2005, 2012).”
Off-Line Processing: Reciprocal Interactions between Declarative and Procedural Memories (2007, background): “Previous work has shown that activation of the MTL is associated with processing procedural or declarative memories (Curran, 1997; Schendan et al., 2003; Walker et al., 2005).”
Contributions of the basal ganglia and functionally related brain structures to motor learning. (2009, unknown): “tion of motor skills, and of motor sequences particularly, as the nature of the post-training, sleep-related cerebral changes has only been shown in the framework of a sleep-deprivation paradigm [32], or using, in the 12-h re-test session, a paced condition that prevented the full expression of the ”
Sleep spindles predict neural and behavioral changes in motor sequence consolidation (2013, methodology): “We then searched the literature for coordinates of activation peaks in these areas with relevant tasks [Doyon et al., 2003; Fischer et al., 2005; Walker et al., 2005].”
Daytime Naps, Motor Memory Consolidation and Regionally Specific Sleep Spindles (2007, methodology): “A referenced PSG electrode montage was utilized, including EEG sites C3 and C4 (referenced to A1 and A2, left and right outer canthi), proximal to the localized learning region of interest (motor cortex; [14]; Figure 1b).”
Sleep-dependent memory consolidation and reconsolidation. (2007, methodology): “Using the sleep-dependent motor-skill task, Walker and colleagues have recently used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate differences between patterns of brain activation before and after sleep [64].”
Sleep, memory, and plasticity. (2006, methodology): “…a potential role for sleep in clinical rehabilitation following brain damage. fMRI has also been used to investigate whether overnight reorganization similarly occurs in sensory-perceptual systems using the sleep-dependent visual texture discrimination task described earlier (Walker et al. 2005b).”
Brain plasticity related to the consolidation of motor sequence learning and motor adaptation (2010, background): “Whereas sleepdependent posttraining improvement in performance on MSL has been associated with a reduction in brain activation in prefrontal, premotor, and primary motor cortex (M1) areas, as well as increased activity in parietal regions (10), a different pattern of results characterized by increas”
