Exploration and Exploitation During Sequential Search
When we learn how to throw darts we adjust how we throw based on where the darts stick. Much of skill learning is computationally similar in that we learn using feedback obtained after the completion of individual actions. We can formalize such tasks as a search problem; among the set of all possible actions, find the action that leads to the highest reward. In such cases our actions have two o...
متن کاملTarget contact and exploration strategies in haptic search
In a haptic search task, one has to detect the presence of a target among distractors using the sense of touch. A salient target can be detected faster than a non-salient target. However, little is known about the exploration strategies that are used, especially in 3D search tasks where items are held in the hand. In this study, we investigated which parts of the hand were used to contact the t...
متن کاملTarget search on a dynamic DNA molecule.
We study a protein-DNA target search model with explicit DNA dynamics applicable to in vitro experiments. We show that the DNA dynamics plays a crucial role for the effectiveness of protein "jumps" between sites distant along the DNA contour but close in three-dimensional space. A strongly binding protein that searches by one-dimensional sliding and jumping alone explores the search space less ...
متن کاملExploration and exploitation during information search and consequential choice
Before making a choice we often search and explore the options available. For example, we try clothes on before selecting the one to buy and we search for career options before deciding a career to pursue. Although the exploration process, where one is free to sample available options is pervasive, we know little about how and why humans explore an environment before making choices. This resear...
متن کاملRecA protein-facilitated DNA strand breaks. A mechanism for bypassing DNA structural barriers during strand exchange.
RecA protein promotes an unexpectedly efficient DNA strand exchange between circular single-stranded DNA and duplex DNAs containing short (50-400-base pair) heterologous sequences at the 5' (initiating) end. The major mechanism by which this topological barrier is bypassed involves DNA strand breakage. Breakage is both strand and position specific, occurring almost exclusively in the displaced ...
