Preferred term

SIMPLE model

A computational model of memory and forgetting, based on the temporal distinctiveness of memories (memories are encoded according to the time at which they were presented and are compressed logarithmically, implying that memories which are temporally distant become more similar to each other) as well as on interference, without distinguishing between short-term and long-term memory.

Scale Independent Memory, Perception and Learning model
Scale Invariant Memory and Perceptual Learning model
