The paper introduces ELiSe, a model that leverages cortical network scaffolds and dendritic compartments to learn complex non‑Markovian spatio‑temporal patterns using only local, always‑on, phase‑free synaptic plasticity. It demonstrates the model’s ability to acquire and replay intricate sequences, exemplified by a birdsong learning mock‑up, and shows robustness to external disturbances and flexibility in parameter settings.

arXiv:2602. 14885v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) provide a theoretical framework for understanding computation in biological neural circuits, yet classical results, such as Hopfield's model of associative memory, rely on symmetric connectivity that restricts network dynamics to gradient-like flows.

arXiv:2608. 07333v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modeling multivariate time series by representing them as graphs, where individual series act as nodes and pairwise temporal corre- lations serve as edges, has gained significant traction.

The article surveys Dynamic Heterogeneous Graph Representation Learning (DHGRL), a field that tackles the challenges of modeling evolving, multi‑type networks. It introduces a unified definition covering both discrete‑time and continuous‑time DHGs, and proposes an algorithm‑centric taxonomy that groups methods into embedding‑based, GNN‑based, and Transformer‑based approaches, highlighting their biases toward temporal granularity. The survey also reviews key applications, datasets, benchmarks, and outlines future research directions.
