Active inference and learning
This paper offers an active inference account of choice behaviour and learning. It focuses on the distinction between goal-directed and habitual behaviour and how they contextualise each other. We show that habits emerge naturally (and autodidactically) from sequential policy optimisation when agents are equipped with state-action policies. In active inference, behaviour has explorative (episte...
متن کاملReinforcement Learning or Active Inference?
This paper questions the need for reinforcement learning or control theory when optimising behaviour. We show that it is fairly simple to teach an agent complicated and adaptive behaviours using a free-energy formulation of perception. In this formulation, agents adjust their internal states and sampling of the environment to minimize their free-energy. Such agents learn causal structure in the...
متن کاملActive Inference in Concept Learning
People are active experimenters, constantly seeking new information relevant to their goals. A reasonable approach to active information gathering is to ask questions and conduct experiments that minimize the expected state of uncertainty, or maximize the expected information gain, given current beliefs (Fedorov, 1972; MacKay, 1992; Oaksford & Chater, 1994). In this paper we present results on ...
متن کاملDopamine, reward learning, and active inference
Temporal difference learning models propose phasic dopamine signaling encodes reward prediction errors that drive learning. This is supported by studies where optogenetic stimulation of dopamine neurons can stand in lieu of actual reward. Nevertheless, a large body of data also shows that dopamine is not necessary for learning, and that dopamine depletion primarily affects task performance. We ...
متن کاملActive Inference and Learning in the Cerebellum
This letter offers a computational account of Pavlovian conditioning in the cerebellum based on active inference and predictive coding. Using eyeblink conditioning as a canonical paradigm, we formulate a minimal generative model that can account for spontaneous blinking, startle responses, and (delay or trace) conditioning. We then establish the face validity of the model using simulated respon...
