Hybrid neural networks for continual learning inspired by corticohippocampal circuits

Nature Communications
Current artificial systems suffer from catastrophic forgetting during continual learning, a limitation absent in biological systems. Biological mechanisms leverage the dual representation of specific and generalized memories within corticohippocampal ...

Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature

Local Search and the Evolution of World Models

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

Experimental demonstration of quantum continual learning with superconducting qubits

npj Quantum Information
Quantum computers may outperform classical computers on machine learning tasks. Yet, quantum learning systems may suffer from catastrophic forgetting, which is widely believed to be an obstacle to achieving continual learning.

The Optimism Ignited by Nature‐Based Solutions: Mobilizing Public Support and Policy Champions in a “First‐Ever” Oyster Reef Restoration Project

Culture, Agriculture, Food and Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, a major push to restore oyster reefs has helped to revive the marine environments that were depleted in South Australia. Categorized as “Nature‐based Solutions” (NbS) that foster the return of biodiversity, these efforts have led to pockets of environmental optimism while countering an otherwise gloomy marine health forecast ...

Bioethics and the World Order: A Curious Coincidence Between Chinese and African Approaches

Developing World Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The post‐1945 world order is standardly pictured as a Westphalian system, in which each state is equal under the law with sovereign authority over its territories. This paper argues that the Westphalian system is changing and examines the implications for bioethics. We show that cross‐border health, economic, ecologic, and sociopolitical risks

Gradient Correlation Subspace Learning against Catastrophic Forgetting [PDF]

Efficient continual learning techniques have been a topic of significant research over the last few years. A fundamental problem with such learning is severe degradation of performance on previously learned tasks, known also as catastrophic forgetting ...

Deregulation, government failure, and tragedy: The Report of Phase 2 of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry

Economic Affairs, EarlyView.
Abstract The Inquiry into the fire at Grenfell Tower, London, in 2017 has exposed the failures that led to the tragedy in a commendably exhaustive manner. But the explanation of those failures is seriously inadequate. First, they are attributed to deregulation, when the Inquiry itself details the ways in which the cladding of the building was subject ...
