A Probabilistic, Distributed, Recursive Mechanism for Decision-making in the Brain
[article]
2016
bioRxiv
pre-print
Here we characterize its essential composition, using as a framework a novel recursive Bayesian algorithm that makes decisions based on spike-trains with the statistics of those in sensory cortex (MT). ...
Our single-equation algorithm is probabilistic, distributed, recursive, and parallel. ...

Confidence as Bayesian Probability: From Neural Origins to Behavior
2015
Neuron
This computational view entails that there are distinct forms in which confidence is represented and used in the brain, including distributional confidence, pertaining to neural representations of probability ...
Here, we explore how a definition of confidence as Bayesian probability can unify these viewpoints. ...
