I’ll be presenting a new biologically plausible associative memory model tomorrow at the Bernstein Conference, in the Hippocampal Memory Circuits workshop. Supervised by Peter Latham, in collaboration with @krotov.bsky.social @apalmigiano.bsky.social @saxelab.bsky.social @yiotapoirazi.bsky.social.

New paper 🧵 What if the "landscape" that guides cell differentiation isn't fixed, but is sculpted, in real time, by the very cells moving through it? We call this a 'sandscape' : grains of sand that carve dunes as they move, while the dunes' shape simultaneously steers where the grains go next.

Tremendously excited to announce that I will be joining @rockefeller.edu as an Assistant Professor and Head of Lab starting in January 2027! My group will be broadly focused on theoretical neuroscience, and mathematical problems in neural computation in the large.

I have just landed in San Diego and I will be at #NeurIPS2025 for the week. DM or send me an email if you want to chat about interesting papers and potential projects related to associative memory, energy-based models, new architectures, or other cool ideas.

I am very excited about our new paper just published in PNAS. www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1... It was a pleasure to work on this idea together with @leokoz8.bsky.social and Jean-Jacques Slotine.

Big week for astrocyte research: 3 new Science papers link astrocytes to behavior. We're excited to add to the momentum with our new PNAS paper: a theory, grounded in biology, proposing astrocytes as key players in memory storage and recall. w/ JJ Slotine and @krotov.bsky.social (1/6)

New ms! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... I developed a normative coding theory for feedback-modulated canonical networks, providing a unified view of (1) efficient & predictive coding, (2) computational & algorithmic principles, (3) unimodal & multimodal sensory processing.

Convergence of efficient and predictive coding in multimodal sensory processing

The existence of pathways connecting different sensory modalities in the brain challenges the traditional view of sensory systems as operating independently. However, the reasons and mechanisms underl...

Now that ICML papers are submitted and we are in the midst of discussions on whether scaling is enough or new architectural/algorithmic ideas are needed, what can be a better time to submit your best work to our workshop on New Frontiers in Associative Memory @iclr-conf.bsky.social?

Most of the work on Dense Associative Memory (DenseAM) thus far has focused on the regime when the amount of data (number of memories) is below the critical memory storage capacity. We are beginning to explore the opposite limit, when the data is large.

Dmitry Krotov @krotov.bsky.social · 03/12/2024

Check out our new #NeurIPS2024 paper, where we develop a distributed representation for a broad class of Dense Associative Memories. Similarly to the traditional Hopfield Network, the number of weights can be kept fixed and independent of the number of memories when new patterns are introduced.
