Foundations of human problem solving

2019-09-23

Abstract excerpt

Despite great strides in both machine learning and neuroscience, we do not know how the human brain solves problems in the general sense. We approach this question by drawing on the framework of engineering control theory. We demonstrate a computational neural model with only localist learning laws that is able to find solutions to arbitrary problems. Using a combination of computational neural modeling, human fMR...
