Leabra - Special Algorithms

Special Algorithms

  • Temporal Differences and General Da (dopamine) Modulation. Temporal differences (TD) is widely used as a model of midbrain dopaminergic firing.
  • Primary value learned value (PVLV). PVLV simulates behavioral and neural data on Pavlovian conditioning and the midbrain dopaminergic neurons that fire in proportion to unexpected rewards (an alternative to TD).
  • Prefrontal Cortex Basal Ganglia Working Memory (PBWM). PBWM uses PVLV to train Prefrontal cortex working memory updating system, based on the biology of the prefrontal cortex and basal ganglia.

Famous quotes containing the word special:

    Fashions change, and with the new psychoanalytical perspective of the postwar period [WWII], child rearing became enshrined as the special responsibility of mothers ... any shortcoming in adult life was now seen as rooted in the failure of mothering during childhood.
    Sylvia Ann Hewitt (20th century)
