%A Jochen Triesch %A Christoph von der Malsburg %T Binding - a proposed experiment and a model %X The binding problem is regarded as one of today's key questions about brain function. Several solutions have been proposed, yet the issue is still controversial. The goal of this article is twofold. Firstly, we propose a new experimental paradigm requiring feature binding, the delayed binding response task. Secondly, we propose a binding mechanism employing fast reversible synaptic plasticity to express the binding between concepts. We discuss the experimental predictions of our model for the delayed binding response task. %K binding, binding problem, grandmother cell, combination-coding cell, superposition catastrophe, correlations, synchrony, delayed response task, delayed binding response task, attention, fast synaptic plasticity, short-term memory mechanism %P 685-690 %E Christoph von der Malsburg %E Werner von Seelen %E Jan C.
