Optimal multisensory decision-making in a reaction-time task
Humans and animals can integrate sensory evidence from various sources to make decisions in a statistically near-optimal manner, provided that the stimulus presentation time is fixed across trials. Little is known about whether optimality is preserved when subjects can choose when to make a decision (reaction-time task), nor when sensory inputs have time-varying reliability. Using a reaction-ti...
متن کاملChanging in the Reaction Time Causes the Confidence Matching in Group Decision Making
Introduction: Others’ decision could constantly affect our decisions. There are numerous studies which revealed this effect properly. The social influence could affect most of the decision parameters, especially the confidence. Recently, an interesting study showed that participants tend to match their confidence to each other while they preserve their decision accuracy in a group decision mak...
متن کاملMultisensory decision-making in rats and humans.
We report a novel multisensory decision task designed to encourage subjects to combine information across both time and sensory modalities. We presented subjects, humans and rats, with multisensory event streams, consisting of a series of brief auditory and/or visual events. Subjects made judgments about whether the event rate of these streams was high or low. We have three main findings. First...
متن کاملModification of response time variability in a decision-making task.
Previous single-unit recordings in monkeys showed that essential information regarding a decision is available earlier to posterior parietal cortex than expected based on simultaneously measured behavioral response times (RTs). We propose that this observation reflects a tendency of the brain to reduce RT variability in repetitive response sequences. To test this, we studied the effects of expe...
متن کاملData mining for decision making in engineering optimal design
Often in modeling the engineering optimization design problems, the value of objective function(s) is not clearly defined in terms of design variables. Instead it is obtained by some numerical analysis such as FE structural analysis, fluid mechanic analysis, and thermodynamic analysis, etc. Yet, the numerical analyses are considerably time consuming to obtain the final value of objective functi...
