Perception and memory in the medial temporal lobe: Deep learning offers a new lens on an old debate.

Journal: Neuron
PMID: 34473951

Abstract

In this issue of Neuron, Bonnen et al. (2021) use artificial neural networks to resolve a long-standing controversy surrounding the neurocognitive dichotomy between memory and perception. They show that the perirhinal cortex supports performance on tasks that cannot be solved by the ventral visual stream.
