Conceptual clustering : Conceptual clustering is obviously closely related to data clustering; however, in conceptual clustering it is not only the inherent structure of the data that drives cluster formation, but also the Description language which is available to the learner. Thus, a statistically strong grouping in ...

Hebbian theory : Hebbian theory is a neuropsychological theory claiming that an increase in synaptic efficacy arises from a presynaptic cell's repeated and persistent stimulation of a postsynaptic cell. It is an attempt to explain synaptic plasticity, the adaptation of neurons during the learning process. Hebbian theor...
Hebbian theory : Hebbian theory provides an explanation for how neurons might connect to become engrams, which may be stored in overlapping cell assemblies, or groups of neurons that encode specific information. Initially created as a way to explain recurrent activity in specific groups of cortical neurons, Hebb's theo...
Hebbian theory : From the point of view of artificial neurons and artificial neural networks, Hebb's principle can be described as a method of determining how to alter the weights between model neurons. The weight between two neurons increases if the two neurons activate simultaneously, and reduces if they activate sep...
Hebbian theory : Because of the simple nature of Hebbian learning, based only on the coincidence of pre- and post-synaptic activity, it may not be intuitively clear why this form of plasticity leads to meaningful learning. However, it can be shown that Hebbian plasticity does pick up the statistical properties of the i...
Hebbian theory : Hebbian learning and spike-timing-dependent plasticity have been used in an influential theory of how mirror neurons emerge.

Cognitive neuroscience has started to explore the intersection of Hebbian theory with brain regions responsible for reward processing and social cognition, such as the striatum and prefrontal cortex. It is hypot...
Hebbian theory : Despite the common use of Hebbian models for long-term potentiation, Hebbian theory does not cover all forms of long-term synaptic plasticity. Hebb did not propose any rules for inhibitory synapses or predictions for anti-causal spike sequences (where the presynaptic neuron fires after the postsynaptic...
Hebbian theory : Modern research has expanded upon Hebb's original ideas. Spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), for example, refines Hebbian principles by incorporating the precise timing of neuronal spikes to Hebbian theory. Experimental advancements have also linked Hebbian learning to complex behaviors, such as ...
