Uncertainty-Driven Exploration During Planning

2024-12-20

Abstract excerpt

<p>In complex environments, the space of possible plans is vast. Generating a good plan therefore requires judicious selection of which parts of the plan space to mentally explore. Drawing on past studies of human exploration, we propose that mental exploration might invoke similar mechanisms. In particular, we test the hypothesis that mental exploration during planning is uncertainty-driven, such that people will...
