Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• The Tolman-Eichenbaum Machine: Unifying Space and Relational Memory through Generalization in the Hippocampal Formation (Whittington et al., 2020)concept0.796
  Prior paper by the same lead author introducing TEM; the neuroscience model whose relationship to transformers is the central topic.
• What are the neuronal mechanisms by which prior beliefs from one agent's model are received and properly implemented by a naive agent (neuronal hermeneutics)?question0.781
  Open question about inter-agent communication beyond model-space assumption
• Connectionist models of cognition and learning identify conditions where collective intelligence can arise bottom-up, using only distributed learning mechanisms without system-level or global feedback.claim0.763
  Central claim about the power of connectionism.
• On a Model of Associative Memory with Huge Storage Capacity (Demircigil et al., 2017)concept0.762
  Analytical result showing exponential power activation allows memory storage scaling as 2^(N/2); cited in context of Hopfield scaling.
• Olah et al. (2020) found that automatically trained computer vision models, regardless of architecture and training procedure, all arrive at similar functional structures organizing similar features into similar compositional hierarchies, closely resembling the primate visual cortex.finding0.762
  Empirical finding supporting the Universality Hypothesis; extended by the paper to consciousness
• Microstructure of a spatial map in the entorhinal cortex (Hafting et al., 2005)concept0.761
  Original discovery of grid cells; the neural phenomenon TEM-t recapitulates.
• The neural architecture of language: Integrative reverse-engineering converges on a model for predictive processing (Schrimpf et al., 2020)concept0.758
  Showed transformer representations predict brain representations in language areas; motivates Discussion about cortex as transformer.
• The geometry of internal representations and the geometry of model behavior share a precise correspondence — representation geometry is a window into the inner world of neural networks.claim0.756
  The paper's deepest interpretive claim, asserting that representation structure and behavioral structure are not coincidentally aligned but deeply connected.
