  2. Neuroanatomy of memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroanatomy_of_memory

    Lobes in this cortex are more closely associated with memory and in particular autobiographical memory. [15] The temporal lobes are also concerned with recognition memory. This is the capacity to identify an item as one that was recently encountered. [16] Recognition memory is widely viewed as consisting of two components, a familiarity ...

  3. Sensorimotor network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensorimotor_network

    The sensorimotor network (SMN), also known as somatomotor network, is a large-scale brain network that primarily includes somatosensory (postcentral gyrus) and motor (precentral gyrus) regions and extends to the supplementary motor areas (SMA). [1] The auditory cortex may also be included, [2] as well as the visual cortex. [3]

  4. Sensory cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_cortex

    The sensory cortex can refer sometimes to the primary somatosensory cortex, or it can be used as a term for the primary and secondary cortices of the different senses (two cortices each, on left and right hemisphere): the visual cortex on the occipital lobes, the auditory cortex on the temporal lobes, the primary olfactory cortex on the uncus of the piriform region of the temporal lobes, the ...

  5. Memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory

    Sensory memory holds information, derived from the senses, less than one second after an item is perceived. The ability to look at an item and remember what it looked like with just a split second of observation, or memorization, is an example of sensory memory. It is out of cognitive control and is an automatic response.

    Taking photos does not necessarily have a good or bad effect on memory. The critical factors involve how you direct your attention and whether you meaningfully engage with the subject matter.

  7. Visual memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_memory

    The posterior parietal cortex is a portion of the parietal lobe, which manipulates mental images, and integrates sensory and motor portions of the brain. A majority of experiments highlights a role of human posterior parietal cortex in visual working memory and attention. We therefore have to establish a clear separation of visual memory and ...

  8. Memory-prediction framework - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory-prediction_framework

    The memory-prediction framework is a theory of brain function created by Jeff Hawkins and described in his 2004 book On Intelligence.This theory concerns the role of the mammalian neocortex and its associations with the hippocampi and the thalamus in matching sensory inputs to stored memory patterns and how this process leads to predictions of what will happen in the future.
