The neuroscience of hierarchical reinforcement learning

Sep 6, 2021

Interesting neuroscience news. This may be quite relevant to hierarchical reinforcement learning.

The researchers found that the pattern of activations for both inductive and deductive reasoning were located in a set of brain regions commonly known as “the multiple-demand (MD) system” that has been known to be involved in different kinds of cognitive challenges such as the selection of task-relevant stimuli of a current cognitive operation, swift reorganization with changing context, and separation of successive stages of task steps, which are intrinsic to the underlying mechanism for humans’ flexible thoughts and problem- solving.

Robert Stonjek shared a link to the group: Neuroscience.
