Inferring Visuomotor Priors for Sensorimotor Learning
Sensorimotor learning has been shown to depend on both prior expectations and sensory evidence in a way that is consistent with Bayesian integration. Thus, prior beliefs play a key role during the learning process, especially when only ambiguous sensory information is available. Here we develop a novel technique to estimate the covariance structure of the prior over visuomotor transformations--...
متن کاملSensorimotor priors in nonstationary environments.
In the course of its interaction with the world, the human nervous system must constantly estimate various variables in the surrounding environment. Past research indicates that environmental variables may be represented as probabilistic distributions of a priori information (priors). Priors for environmental variables that do not change much over time have been widely studied. Little is known,...
متن کاملHuman sensorimotor cortex represents conflicting visuomotor mappings.
Behavioral studies have shown that humans can adapt to conflicting sensorimotor mappings that cause interference after intensive training. While previous research works indicate the involvement of distinct brain regions for different types of motor learning (e.g., kinematics vs dynamics), the neural mechanisms underlying joint adaptation to conflicting mappings within the same type of perturbat...
متن کاملLearning Priors for Invariance
For modern large-scale Bayesian models, informative priors are difficult if not impossible to elicit. Yet, often, some prior knowledge is known, and this information is incorporated via engineering tricks or methods less principled than a Bayesian prior. However, employing these tricks is difficult to reconcile with principled probabilistic inference. For instance, in the case of data set augme...
متن کاملInferring priors in compositional cognitive models
We apply Bayesian data analysis to a structured cognitive model in order to determine the priors that support human generalizations in a simple concept learning task. We modeled 250,000 ratings in a “number game” experiment where subjects took examples of a numbers produced by a program (e.g. 4, 16, 32) and rated how likely other numbers (e.g. 8 vs. 9) would be to be generated. This paper devel...
