You'll get hands-on implementation experience (programming experience background is helpful, but enthusiasm is key!). If you're an undergrad, grad student, or postdoc interested in AI, cogsci, or neuroscience, this course is for you! 🧠🤖

@cogscikid @neuro_kim @nathanieldaw @summerfieldlab @kevinjmiller10 .. that incremental updating is not required. A model that calculates choice variables anew on each trial does just as well as one that keeps track of them and performs a small update on each trial.

@cogscikid @neuro_kim @nathanieldaw @summerfieldlab @kevinjmiller10 Great question, Wilka! The class of algorithms we are questioning are those that are based exclusively on incremental updating of choice variables (e.g., Q-values). Our models suggest that humans separate memory variables from decision variables (aka, logits). And they suggest..

We can add or remove model functions and see which architecture fits best; we can add or remove inputs, outputs, or connections between them; and the networks will automatically find the functions that predict the observed behavior best.
