Abstract
En 中文
Detecting novelty is ethologically useful for an organism's survival. Recent experiments characterize how different types of novelty over timescales from seconds to weeks are reflected in the activity of excitatory and inhibitory neuron types. Here, we introduce a learning mechanism, familiarity -modulated synapses (FMSs), consisting of multiplicative modulations dependent on presynaptic or pre/postsynaptic neuron activity. With FMSs, network responses that encode novelty emerge under unsupervised continual learning and minimal connectivity constraints. Implementing FMSs within an experimentally constrained model of a visual cortical circuit, we demonstrate the generalizability of FMSs by simultaneously fitting absolute, contextual, and omission novelty effects. Our model also reproduces functional diversity within cell subpopulations, leading to experimentally testable predictions about connectivity and synaptic dynamics that can produce both population -level novelty responses and heterogeneous individual neuron signals. Altogether, our findings demonstrate how simple plasticity mechanisms within a cortical circuit structure can produce qualitatively distinct and complex novelty responses.
