• Hippocampal Indexing Theoryframework0.891
  Theory that hippocampus provides an index binding together cortical patterns across different brain regions; TEM-t is shown to instantiate this.
• TEM-t instantiates hippocampal indexing theory by using memory neurons to bind cortical representations across brain regionsclaim0.808
  Theoretical claim linking the TEM-t architecture to the Teyler-Rudy hippocampal indexing theory.
• Hippocampal representation of related and opposing memories (McKenzie et al., 2014)concept0.794
  Experimental evidence that hippocampal neurons respond to more than two task variables; motivates multi-input extension of TEM-t.
• The hippocampus as a predictive map (Stachenfeld et al., 2017)concept0.793
  Graph representation model of hippocampus; related work category 2.
• The hippocampus as a spatial map (O'Keefe & Dostrovsky, 1971)concept0.783
  Original discovery of place cells; the neural phenomenon TEM-t memory neurons resemble.
• The Tolman-Eichenbaum Machine: Unifying Space and Relational Memory through Generalization in the Hippocampal Formation (Whittington et al., 2020)concept0.768
  Prior paper by the same lead author introducing TEM; the neuroscience model whose relationship to transformers is the central topic.
• Hippocampusconcept0.741
  Brain region corresponding to the memory/conjunction component in TEM; memory neurons resemble place cells.
• are hippocampal architecture and bespoke neuroscience models capable of the general purpose computations studied in machine learning?question0.729
  Motivating question from introduction that the TEM-transformer equivalence helps answer affirmatively.
