Learning compositional sequences with multiple time scales through a hierarchical network of spiking neurons. by Amadeus Maes, Mauricio Barahona, Claudia Clopath

“…Sequential behaviour is often compositional and organised across multiple time scales: a set of individual elements developing on short time scales (motifs) are combined to form longer functional sequences (syntax). Such organisation leads to a natural hierarchy that can be used advantageously for learning, since the motifs and the syntax can be acquired independently. …”
