Musical Memory

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of verbalization about a brief etude on collegiate string players’ short- and long-term recall of the etude in question. We examined competing hypotheses that suggest it is possible that verbalization (i.e., verbal analysis of musical features) (a) could aid in recall both by highlighting patterns and constraints that inform the music’s creation and by facilitating the creation of explicit performance cues that help to bridge gaps between associative recall chains or (b) may hinder recall by interfering with the creation of procedural and auditory memories necessary for musical performance. Participants ( N = 20) were assigned to experimental conditions in which they learned an unfamiliar etude either through repetition alone or through repetition followed by the completion of a verbalization worksheet provided by the experimenter. Recall was tested both immediately following initial practice and 24 hours later to examine the effect of verbalization on both short- and long-term retention. Findings indicated no differences between groups on immediate recall performance but significant differences at the 24-hour recall task with participants in the verbalization condition recalling more material. In addition, the patterns of errors found across groups indicated a strong primacy effect. Theoretical implications for the study of memory processes in musical contexts and practical implications regarding the preparation of memorized performance are discussed.

External Stimuli

The convergence characteristics of a single dissipative Hopfield-type neuron with self-interaction under periodic external stimuli are considered. Sufficient conditions are established for associative encoding and recall of the periodic patterns associated with the external stimuli. Both continuous-time-continuous-state and discrete-time-continuous-state models are discussed. It is shown that when the neuronal gain is dominated by the neuronal dissipation on average, associative recall of the encoded temporal pattern is guaranteed and this is achieved by the global asymptotic stability of the encoded pattern.

Long Term Experience

Synapses that can be strengthened in temporary and persistent manners by two separate mechanisms are shown to have powerful advantages in neural networks that perform auto-associative recall and recognition. A multiplicative relation between the two weights allows the same set of connections to be used in a closely interactive way for short-term and long-term memory. Algorithms and simulations are described for the storage, consolidation and recall of patterns that have been presented only once to a network. With double modifiability, the short-term performance is dramatically improved, becoming almost independent of the amount of long-term experience. The high quality of short-term recall allows consolidation to take place, with benefits from the selection and optimization of long term engram s to take account of relations between stored patterns. Long-term capacity is greater than short-term capacity, with little or no deficit compared with that, obtained with singly modifiable synapses. Long-term recall requires special, simply implemented, procedures for increasing the temporary weights of the synapses being used to initiate recall. A consolidation algorithm is described for improving long-term recall when there is overlap between patterns. Confusional errors are reduced by strengthening the associations between non-overlapping elements in the patterns, in a two-stage process that has several of the characteristics of sleep.
