SHRUTI-agent: a structured connectionist model of decision-making
نویسنده
چکیده
A neurally plausible connectionist model of decisionmaking, based on the SHRUTI architecture, is being devloped. Toward this end, issues of appropriate connectionist representations for belief and utility, necessary control mechanisms, and reinforcement-based learning are addressed.

Combining belief and utility in a structured connectionist agent architecture
The SHRUTI model demonstrates how a system of simple, neuron-like elements can encode a large body of relational causal knowledge and provide the basis for rapid inference. Here we show how a representation of utility can be integrated with the existing representation of belief, such that the resulting architecture can be used to reason about values and goals and thereby contribute to decision-...
متن کاملComputational modeling of dynamic decision making using connectionist networks
In this research connectionist modeling of decision making has been presented. Important areas for decision making in the brain are thalamus, prefrontal cortex and Amygdala. Connectionist modeling with 3 parts representative for these 3 areas is made based the result of Iowa Gambling Task. In many researches Iowa Gambling Task is used to study emotional decision making. In these kind of decisio...
متن کاملConnectionist mechanisms for cognitive control
An understanding of cognitive control is crucial for understanding high-level cognition and delineating the functional role of prefrontal cortex in supporting complex cognitive operations. In this paper, we approach the problem of cognitive control by examining the control needs of SHRUTI, a neurally plausible and cognitively motivated model of inference and decision-making. It is shown that pr...
متن کاملMassively Parallel Simulation of Structured Connectionist Networks: An Interim Report
We map structured connectionist models of knowledge representation and reasoning onto existing general purpose massively parallel architectures with the objective of developing and implementing practical, realtime knowledge base systems. Shruti, a connectionist knowledge representation and reasoning system which attempts to model reflexive reasoning, will serve as our representative connectioni...
متن کاملProbabilistic Inference and Learning in a Connectionist Causal Network
The SHRUTI model demonstrates how a structured connectionist network can be used to encode relational causal knowledge and provide a basis for rapid inference. This paper explores the extent to which the evidential reasoning in SHRUTI can be viewed as probabilistic. An interpretation of the link weights is provided with which the results of spreading activation in the model accord well with pro...
