Second, an "anti-hebbian" form of LTD, in which presynaptic activity that is unable to cause postsynaptic excitation depresses synaptic strength, could serve to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of sensory input activation of stored memories, by maximizing the ductances also confers on
## Abstract One way that some types of shortβterm or working memory may be implemented in the brain is by using autoassociation networks that recirculate information to maintain the firing of a subset of neurons in what is termed an attractor state. We describe how longβterm synaptic modification i
