Hebbian SDR Adapter for Streaming Context Learning
Attach a local BCM-trained binary adapter to a pretrained or frozen encoder, allowing new graph nodes or streaming examples to acquire representations without backpropagating through the main network. The adapter learns only from positive co-occurrence statistics and maintains sparse codes, providing a low-memory continual-learning path.
