Neural evidence that humans reuse strategies to solve new tasks

2024-06-10

Abstract excerpt

Generalisation from past experience is an important feature of intelligent systems. When faced with a new task, one efficient computational approach is to evaluate solutions to earlier tasks as candidates for reuse. Consistent with this idea, we found that human participants (n=38) learned optimal solutions to a set of training tasks and generalised them to novel test tasks in a reward selective manner. This behav...
