The ability to learn and to establish new memories is fundamental to our lives; we rely on our memories to do the simplest of things - remember who we are, recognise the words we read and the sounds ...
The capacity of the short-term memory can be increased through a method called ‘chunking’. This involved breaking a larger piece of information into several smaller pieces. A good example of how we ...
Scientists at Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience discovered a parallel pathway for forming long-term memories that bypasses short-term memory. Using optogenetics, they blocked short-term ...
Your ability to recall the what, when, where, and how of a past experience comes from episodic memory, a type of long-term, explicit memory. Your memory allows you to retain information so you can use ...
Scientists have created a novel probabilistic model for 5-minutes ahead PV power forecasting. The method combines a convolutional neural network with bidirectional long short-term memory, attention ...

How short-term memory works

Short-term memory is the capacity to store a small amount of information in the mind and keep it readily available for a short period of time. It is also known as primary or active memory. Short-term ...
