Kavli Affiliate: Elizabeth Hillman | Authors: Sam E. Benezra, Kripa B. Patel, Citlali Pérez Campos, Elizabeth M. C. Hillman and Randy M Bruno | Summary: Learning alters cortical representations and improves perception. Apical tuft dendrites in Layer 1, which are unique in their connectivity and biophysical properties, may be a key site of learning-induced plasticity. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Angela Yu | Authors: Alexander Paunov, Maëva L’Hôtellier, Zoe He, Dalin Guo, Angela Yu and Florent Meyniel | Summary: Decision-making in noisy, changing, and partially observable environments entails a basic tradeoff between immediate reward and longer-term information gain, known as the exploration-exploitation dilemma. Computationally, an effective way to balance this tradeoff is by […]
