Preferred term

Recognition through Semantic Synchronization model  

Definition

  • A computational model of true and false recognition that ”[…] uses plausible semantic representations for words, built through exposure to a linguistic corpus. A study list is encoded in the model as a gist trace, similar to the proposal of fuzzy trace theory […].The model uses a decision process based on the principles of neural synchronization and information accumulation. The decision process operates by synchronizing a probe with the gist trace of a study context, allowing information to be accumulated about whether the word did or did not occur on the study list, and the efficiency of synchronization determines recognition.“ (Jones et al., 2012, p. 486).
