Abstract

We introduce a model of working memory combining short-term and long-term components. For the long-term component, we used Conceptors in order to store constant temporal patterns. For the short-term component, we used the Gated-Reservoir model: a reservoir trained to hold a triggered information from an input stream and maintain it in a readout unit. We combined both components in order to obtain a model in which information can go from long-term memory to short-term memory and vice-versa.
