The Dynamics of Memory and Sleep
This chapter discusses the development of a novel computational model that emulates the brain's learning processes during sleep, emphasizing memory reactivation dynamics. It explores the distinct roles of non-REM and REM sleep in memory consolidation, the interconnected nature of memories, and the impact of sleep on learning. The conversation highlights the importance of continual learning and targeted memory reactivation for optimizing memory retention and generalization.
