Latching Dynamics in Potts Network

Latching dynamics,designed by A.Treves from SISSA,is a kind of adaptive Potts dynamics model that derived from the unique infinite recursion capability hypothesis in human languages.It successfully explains the strategic transition phenomenon in human thinking,bringing great significance to the exploration of the emergence of human intelligence.But Latching dynamics runs on a single module,forfeiting a fruitful dialogue with the experimental evidence.A modular Latching chain is proposed by the introduction of delayed hetero-associative synapses,and the effects of structural parameters like rewiring probility,threshold,noise patterns pairs and feedback connections are analyzed by computational simulations.The main findings in the paper includes: 1) an appropriate rewiring probability promotes the intra-modular latching transitions.2) The average latching chain length and inverse switching ratio are insensitive to the noise and feedback connections.3) A larger threshold is necessary for the clear transition between modules.
