Learning Reward Uncertainty in the Basal Ganglia
Learning the reliability of different sources of rewards is critical for making optimal choices. However, despite the existence of detailed theory describing how the expected reward is learned in the basal ganglia, it is not known how reward uncertainty is estimated in these circuits. This paper presents a class of models that encode both the mean reward and the spread of the rewards, the forme...
متن کاملBasal ganglia orient eyes to reward.
Expectation of reward motivates our behaviors and influences our decisions. Indeed, neuronal activity in many brain areas is modulated by expected reward. However, it is still unclear where and how the reward-dependent modulation of neuronal activity occurs and how the reward-modulated signal is transformed into motor outputs. Recent studies suggest an important role of the basal ganglia. Senso...
متن کاملLinking reward expectation to behavior in the basal ganglia.
Psychological factors such as expected reward value can have strong effects on behavior. Although signals related to reward have been found in numerous brain regions, how these signals are used by the circuits that control action is unknown. A recent study suggests that neurons in the caudate nucleus of the basal ganglia could play a role in transforming expected reward into a spatially selecti...
متن کاملLearning Working Memory Tasks by Reward Prediction in the Basal Ganglia
We present a detailed computational model of working memory as subserved by the basal ganglia and prefrontal cortex. The model expands on our previous work by incorporating a learning mechanism based on discrepancies in predicted rewards, the implementation of which is informed via a detailed consideration of the basal ganglia anatomy and physiology. This mechanism enables the system to learn t...
متن کاملReward processing in primate orbitofrontal cortex and basal ganglia.
This article reviews and interprets neuronal activities related to the expectation and delivery of reward in the primate orbitofrontal cortex, in comparison with slowly discharging neurons in the striatum (caudate, putamen and ventral striatum, including nucleus accumbens) and midbrain dopamine neurons. Orbitofrontal neurons showed three principal forms of reward-related activity during the per...
