Two Choice Task
- A two choice task is given an input choose one of two possible
actions.
- The answer can be learned via reinforcment.
- This can be probabilistic
- Prior work, from Friedman et al. in 1964, showed that people roughly
follow the probabilities but lean toward 50%.
- We used reinforcement learning with environmental feedback,
and some randomness to reproduce this work.
- The trick was to punish incorrect decisions.
- If you don't do that, just by Hebbian learning, the incorrect
decsion becomes more likely.
- We did this by randomly activating the other answer.
