Serial, parallel and hierarchical decision making in primates
The study of decision-making has mainly focused on isolated decisions where choices are associated with motor actions. However, problem-solving often involves considering a hierarchy of sub-decisions. In a recent study (Lorteije et al. 2015), we reported behavioral and neuronal evidence for hierarchical decision making in a task with a small decision tree. We observed a first phase of parallel ...
متن کاملHierarchical Decision Making
Decision making must be made within an appropriate context; we contend that such context is best represented by a hierarchy of states. The lowest levels of this hierarchy represent the observed raw data, or specific low-level behaviors and decisions. As we ascend the hierarchy, the states become increasingly abstract, representing higher order tactics, strategies, and over-arching mission goals...
متن کاملValuation and decision-making in frontal cortex: one or many serial or parallel systems?
We evaluate the merits of different conceptualizations of frontal cortex function in value-guided decision-making. According to one view each frontal cortical region is concerned with a different aspect of the process of learning about and evaluating choices and then selecting actions. An alternative view, however, sees sets of decision-making circuits working in parallel within the frontal lob...
متن کاملRational Decision Making in Primates: The Bounded and the Ecological
A young female rhesus macaque steals furtive glances at the male off to her right. He just arrived to the territory and therefore immediately piques her interest. The alpha male, however, sits a few meters off, basking in the sun. Being in estrus, the young female faces a choice: solicit a mating from the alpha male or follow the unfamiliar male into the brush to sneak a mating with him. Mating...
متن کاملHierarchical Decision Making in Machine Design
This paper considers team decision making in mechanical engineering design, and in particular for decisions based on hierarchical evaluation criteria. We develop the Analytic Hierarchy Process as appropriate for mechanical design teams, and demonstrate that the method is particularly well suited for design problems that involve hierarchical descriptions such as for precision machine tools. The ...
