= Complementary learning systems
= CLS
{c}
{synonym}
A framework combining rapid learning with relatively separated episodic representations and slower learning with overlapping representations that extract shared structure. <Hippocampal> reinstatement supplies experience for interleaved cortical learning. The computational aim is to retain specific events while integrating new knowledge without destructive interference, not simply to duplicate short- and long-duration stores.<Why there are complementary learning systems in the hippocampus and neocortex: insights from the successes and failures of connectionist models of learning and memory by James L. McClelland and others>[Psychological Review 102, pp. 419–457; pp. 432–435 and Figures 9–11, interference and interleaved learning; later sections on consolidation]{ref}
