Researchers have investigated the shared and unique neural processes that underlie different types of long-term memory: general semantic, personal semantic and episodic memory. Their study, published ...

With transistors and logic gates as our basic building blocks, we can begin to construct the actual circuits that make up computer memory. One of the simplest memory circuits is the AND gate, which ...

It's easy to forget important events like a work deadline or an anniversary, but understanding how memory works can help. Cognitive psychologist Endel Tulving introduced the idea of episodic and ...

Memory can be broken down into multiple types, including long-term memory, short-term memory, explicit and implicit memory, and working memory. Memory is a process in your brain that enables you to ...

Big artificial intelligence models are known for using enormous amounts of memory and energy. But a new study suggests that ...

A new paper published in PLOS One shows that mushrooms can act as the "memristors" required for many next-gen computing applications. Memristors could offer enormous speed boosts over traditional ...

Your implicit memory helps you remember how to do things without consciously thinking about it. It includes skills and habits, like how to ride a bike and how to get around your house. It also ...
