A Cognitive Model for Generalization during Sequential Learning

Figure 4

This graph plots the change in the summed connection weights in the acquisition pathway and in the extinction pathway (𝑦-axis) during the successive acquisition and extinction trainings (𝑥-axis). The change in weights decreases in both the pathways as the number of prior acquisitions and extinctions training sessions increases. There seems to be a slow upward going trend in the weights in both the pathways, which appears to be a quirk of the simulator.
