Are task representations gated in macaque prefrontal cortex?
A recent paper (Flesch et al, 2022) describes behavioural and neural data suggesting that task representations are gated in the prefrontal cortex in both humans and macaques.
Out-of-sample scoring and automatic selection of causal estimators
However, the practical application of such models has ben hampered by the lack of a valid way to score the performance of such models out of sample, in order to select the best one for a given application.
Continual task learning in natural and artificial agents
How do humans and other animals learn new tasks?
Modelling continual learning in humans with Hebbian context gating and exponentially decaying task signals
Here, we propose novel computational constraints for artificial neural networks, inspired by earlier work on gating in the primate prefrontal cortex, that capture the cost of interleaved training and allow the network to learn two tasks in sequence without forgetting.
