Neural inhibition for continual learning and memory.
Humans are able to continually learn new information and acquire skills that meet the demands of an ever-changing environment. Yet, this new learning does not necessarily occur at the expense of old memories. The specialised biological mechanisms that permit continual learning in humans and other mammals are not fully understood.

Neural noise and cortical inhibition in schizophrenia [PDF]
Background: Neural information processing is subject to noise and this leads to variability in neural firing and behavior. Schizophrenia has been associated with both more variable motor control and impaired cortical inhibition, which is crucial for ...

Combinatorial Neural Inhibition for Stimulus Selection across Space. [PDF]
The ability to select the most salient stimulus among competing ones is essential for animal behavior and operates regardless of the spatial locations that stimuli occupy. Here, we reveal that the brain employs a combinatorially optimized strategy to solve such location-invariant stimulus selection.

Dynamic Neural Deactivation Bridges Direct and Competitive Inhibition Processes [PDF]
Inhibition is an important concept in cognitive neuroscience. Direct inhibition, characterized by the active suppression of stimuli, and competition‐induced inhibition, which involves ignoring irrelevant stimuli by prioritizing relevant ones, have ...

Overlapping neural activations between trait self-control and cognitive inhibition during emotional stimuli processing [PDF]
This study aimed to explore the neural basis of self-control and cognitive control by examining the brain activity during an inhibitory control task. Fifty-four participants (37 women) took part in this study.

Cumulative inhibition in neural networks [PDF]
We show how a multi-resolution network can model the development of acuity and coarse-to-fine processing in the mammalian visual cortex. The network adapts to input statistics in an unsupervised manner, and learns a coarse-to-fine representation by using cumulative inhibition of nodes within a network layer.
