Constrained Hebbian Learning Supports Efficient Representational Allocation under Structural Constraints

Introduction: Biological systems face anatomical and metabolic constraints, including costly synaptic maintenance and limited connectivity. These constraints favor neural codes that compress behaviorally relevant information into low-redundancy patterns. We test whether an excitatory competitive Hebbian rule can support synaptic resource allocation under such constraints and whether the resulting representations occupy a more favorable cost-performance regime than reference learning rules. Methods: Representational cost is quantified using mutual-information-based measures derived from the V
