A brain basis of dynamical intelligence for AI and computational neuroscience
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
The deep neural nets of modern artificial intelligence (AI) have not achieved defining features of biological intelligence, including abstraction, causal learning, and energy-efficiency. ...
This article was inspired by our symposium on dynamical neuroscience and machine learning at the 6th Annual US/NIH BRAIN Initiative Investigators Meeting. ...
Thus, we must admit the circular causality of dynamical control and action-perception loops that subserve the behavioral teleology of intelligent animals 148, 149 . ...

How higher goals are constructed and collapse under stress: a hierarchical Bayesian control systems perspective
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
We show how such goals are constructed from progressively lesser goal states and that goal hierarchies tend to decompose in a top-down manner under severe and prolonged levels of stress. ...
The nested hierarchical organization of such networks allows organisms to form increasingly integrated percepts and concepts of their inner and outer context, which can be compared to increasingly encompassing ...
In the past decade, goal-directed learning has been applied within the context of artificial neural networks [ ]. ...

How higher goals are constructed and collapse under stress: a hierarchical Bayesian control systems perspective
2021
Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews
We show that goal hierarchies tend to decompose in a top-down manner under severe and prolonged levels of stress. ...
Such systems combine hierarchical perception with hierarchical goal setting and hierarchical action control. ...

Most human cognitive abilities, from perception to action to memory, are shared with other species; we seek to characterize those (few) capabilities that are ubiquitously present among humans and absent ...

Backwards is the way forward: Feedback in the cortical hierarchy predicts the expected future
2013
Behavioral and Brain Sciences
First, on anabstractconceptual level, it provides a unifying framework for perception, action, and cognition (including subdivisions such as attention, expectation, and imagination). ...
Second, hierarchical prediction offers progress on aconcretedescriptive level for testing and constraining conceptual elements and mechanisms of predictive coding models (estimation of predictions, prediction ...
For example, work in mobile robotics already demonstrates a variety of concrete ways in which perception and behavior productively interact via loops through action and the environment: loops that may ...

Such accounts offer a unifying model of perception and action, illuminate the functional role of attention, and may neatly capture the special contribution of cortical processing to adaptive success. ...
This target article critically examines this "hierarchical prediction machine" approach, concluding that it offers the best clue yet to the shape of a unified science of mind and action. ...

Attention is more than prediction precision
2013
Behavioral and Brain Sciences
AbstractA cornerstone of the target article is that, in a predictive coding framework, attention can be modelled by weighting prediction error with a measure of precision. ...
We argue that this is not a complete explanation, especially in the light of ERP (event-related potentials) data showing large evoked responses for frequently presented target stimuli, which thus are predicted ...
