New thoughts about thinking.

Reviews the book, The Nature of Thought: Essays in Honor of D.O. Hebb edited by P.W. Jusczyk and R.M. Klein (1980). The phenomenon of thinking, the topic to which this important collection of essays is addressed, is one of the principal perennial concerns of psychology. It is as fundamental and as unsolved a problem today as at the time of experimental psychology's introspectionist beginnings and, through the ensuing decades, has never ceased to stimulate, fascinate, baffle, and bewilder the serious student of psychological phenomena. The present volume appropriately reflects a wide spectrum of specific concerns and approaches to this topic. Appropriate, as well, is its dedication in honour of D.O. Hebb, whose own approach to the study of thought is especially broad and encompassing. The book resulted from a recent series of lectures, in Hebb's honour, at Dalhousie University. This is not, however, a volume primarily addressed to Hebb's ideas. Rather, it is a collection of progress reports by a number of distinguished researchers in the fields of human and animal cognition on recent approaches to topics such as consciousness, mental imagery, problem solving, representation, attention, and skilled performance.

Learning correct responses and errors in the Hebb repetition effect: Two faces of the same coin.

In a serial recall task, the Hebb repetition effect occurs when recall performance improves for a sequence repeated throughout the experimental session. This phenomenon has been replicated many times. Nevertheless, such cumulative learning seldom leads to perfect recall of the whole sequence, and errors persist. Here the authors report evidence that there is another side to the Hebb repetition effect that involves learning errors produced in a repeated sequence. A learning measure based on past recalls (correct or incorrect) shows that the probability of a given response increases with the number of prior occurrences of that response. The pattern of results reveals another manifestation of the Hebb repetition effect and speaks to the nature of implicit learning. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)     

Lashley, Hebb, connections, and criticisms.

Hebb claimed that Lashley, over the final two decades of his career, focussed exclusively on pointing out deficiencies in existing theory and stopped making positive contributions of his own. This characterization, which Hebb also suggested was why Lashley declined to collaborate on The Organization of Behavior (D. O. Hebb, 1949), is shown to be an overstatement. Lashley's coolness from the very outset toward Hebb's neuropsychological theory probably stemmed from disagreement with its substance. Yet it was a theory that in the end, Lashley himself appeared to accept. Curiously, Hebb's complaint about Lashley's excessively critical bent coexisted with a more measured view of his theoretical approach, a view in keeping with the one presented in this essay.

Mixed Conduction in Ceramic Hydrogen/Steam Electrodes by Hebb–Wagner Polarization in the Frequency Domain

The unique mixed conduction aspect has much to be explored for ceramic fuel/steam electrodes suggested for higher chemical stability than cermets in SOFC/SOEC applications. Typical symmetric cell configuration of the thin ceramic electrodes on the electrolytes was shown to be a versatile configuration of the electron‐blocking Hebb–Wagner polarization cell for the characterization of the mass and charge transport in mixed conducting oxides by impedance spectroscopy. The Jamnik–Maier transmission line model for the mixed conductors was generalized by replacing the capacitors with constant‐phase elements to describe the extremely non‐ideal impedance behavior of porous but negligibly catalytic La₂Ti₂O₇ layers at various humidity levels up to 90% in hydrogen at 850 °C. Modeling allowed the deconvolution of the parameter set for the evaluation of chemical diffusivity and non‐stoichiometry as well as partial ionic and electronic conductivity of La₂Ti₂O₇. Electrostatic double layer capacitance was found to be orders of magnitude higher than the theoretical despite the correct oxygen activity dependence, which appears generic and thus requires a theoretical clarification. Overlapping interfacial and chemical capacitance as well as the strongly non‐ideal behavior of the latter are mainly responsible for the less clearly distinguished diffusion‐limited feature of the Hebb–Wagner polarization cell.     

一种生长型神经网络的倒立摆控制方案

针对倒立摆系统,提出了在结构上可生长的神经网络控制方案。网络利用细胞生长结构算法,在工作域中实现对状态变量的模式分类,并通过新神经元的插入实现网络规模的生长演化。在输出域中针对倒立摆控制任务采用强化Hebb学习机制,实现不同的神经元以最佳方式响应不同性质的信号刺激。仿真表明,通过神经网络自身的发育,该方案有效控制了倒立摆系统。

随着知识发现与数据挖掘领域数据量的不断增加,为了处理大规模数据,scaling up学习成为KDD的热点研究领域.文中提出了基于Hebb规则的分布式神经网络学习算法实现scaling up学习.为了提高学习速度,完整数据集被分割成不相交的子集并由独立的子神经网络来学习;通过对算法完整性及竞争Hebb学习的风险界的分析,采用增长和修剪策略避免分割学习降低算法的学习精度.对该算法的测试实验首先采用基准测试数据circlein-the-square测试了其学习能力,并与SVM,ARTMAP和BP神经网络进行比较;然后采用UCI中的数据集USCensus1990测试其对大规模数据的学习性能.     

Prix de la SCP 1988 honorant une contribution hors-pair à la psychologie en tant que science.

Announces that the 1988 recipient of the CPA award for Distinguished Contributions to Psychology as a Science is Dr. Philip Bryden, Professor of Psychology at the University of Waterloo. One of Dr. Bryden's major contributions was to tackle the difficult issue of reliability of measures and to design and execute careful and meticulous experiments; experiments that are in large part responsible for the widespread acceptance of this technique as a tool in cognitive psychology and neuropsychology.

Properties and Stability of Max-Product Fuzzy Bi-Directional Associative Memory

In this paper, a fuzzy operator of max-product is defined at first, and the fuzzy bi-directional associative memory (FBAM) based on the fuzzy operator of max-product is given. Then the properties and the Lyapunov stability of equilibriums of the networks are studied.
