Abstract:
Psychological studies have demonstrated that the music can affect memory by triggering different emotions. Building on the relationships among music, emotion, and memory, a memristor-based emotion associative learning circuit is designed by utilizing the nonlinear and non-volatile characteristics of memristors, which includes a music judgment module, three emotion generation modules, three emotional homeostasis modules, and a memory module to implement functions such as learning, second learning, forgetting, emotion generation, and emotional homeostasis. The experimental results indicate that the proposed circuit can simulate the learning and forgetting processes of human under different music circumstances, demonstrate the feasibility of memristors in biomimetic circuits, verify the impact of music on memory, and provide a foundation for in-depth research and application development of the interaction mechanism between emotion and memory.
