Spontaneous emergence of action decisions and slow ramping in a deep, brain-constrained model of frontotemporal areas

Abstract excerpt

When placed in front of a button and instructed to press it only when they “feel the urge” to do so, humans typically make a “spontaneous” decision to act at seemingly random times, usually between 5 and 30sec from trial start. In such a situation, how does our brain make a decision that the time to act has come? To investigate this question, we used a 6-area brain-constrained neural-network model that accounts fo...
