Joint sparse coding and temporal dynamics support context reconfiguration

ArXi:2605.10178v1 Announce Type: cross Adaptive behavior requires the brain to transition between distinct contexts while maintaining representations of prior experience. The ability to reconfigure neural representations without erasing previously acquired knowledge is central to learning in dynamic environments, yet the neural mechanisms that this balance remain unclear. Understanding these mechanisms is also critical for addressing catastrophic forgetting in artificial systems designed for lifelong learning.
