Autoshaped impulsivity: Some explorations with a neural network model.

Behavioural processes
This study evaluated the effect of delay and magnitude of reinforcement in Pavlovian contingencies, extending the understanding of the phenomenon of autoshaped impulsivity as described in Alcalá's thesis (2017) and Burgos and García-Leal (2015). The ...

Modelling dataset bias in machine-learned theories of economic decision-making.

Nature human behaviour
Normative and descriptive models have long vied to explain and predict human risky choices, such as those between goods or gambles. A recent study reported the discovery of a new, more accurate model of human decision-making by training neural networ...

Harnessing the flexibility of neural networks to predict dynamic theoretical parameters underlying human choice behavior.

PLoS computational biology
Reinforcement learning (RL) models are used extensively to study human behavior. These rely on normative models of behavior and stress interpretability over predictive capabilities. More recently, neural network models have emerged as a descriptive m...

Recurrent networks endowed with structural priors explain suboptimal animal behavior.

Current biology : CB
The strategies found by animals facing a new task are determined both by individual experience and by structural priors evolved to leverage the statistics of natural environments. Rats quickly learn to capitalize on the trial sequence correlations of...

Goals, usefulness and abstraction in value-based choice.

Trends in cognitive sciences
Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar, while on the run, purportedly burned two million dollars in banknotes to keep his daughter warm. A stark reminder that, in life, circumstances and goals can quickly change, forcing us to reassess and modify our valu...

Flexible control as surrogate reward or dynamic reward maximization.

Cognition
The utility of a given experience, like interacting with a particular friend or tasting a particular food, fluctuates continually according to homeostatic and hedonic principles. Consequently, to maximize reward, an individual must be able to escape ...

Materials In Paintings (MIP): An interdisciplinary dataset for perception, art history, and computer vision.

PloS one
In this paper, we capture and explore the painterly depictions of materials to enable the study of depiction and perception of materials through the artists' eye. We annotated a dataset of 19k paintings with 200k+ bounding boxes from which polygon se...

Neural and computational mechanisms of momentary fatigue and persistence in effort-based choice.

Nature communications
From a gym workout, to deciding whether to persevere at work, many activities require us to persist in deciding that rewards are 'worth the effort' even as we become fatigued. However, studies examining effort-based decisions typically assume that th...

Aesthetic preference for art can be predicted from a mixture of low- and high-level visual features.

Nature human behaviour
It is an open question whether preferences for visual art can be lawfully predicted from the basic constituent elements of a visual image. Here, we developed and tested a computational framework to investigate how aesthetic values are formed. We show...

A dataset of human and robot approach behaviors into small free-standing conversational groups.

PloS one
The analysis and simulation of the interactions that occur in group situations is important when humans and artificial agents, physical or virtual, must coordinate when inhabiting similar spaces or even collaborate, as in the case of human-robot team...
