AI-Discovered Cognitive Models Reveal Novel Insights into Human and Animal Learning

2026-05-21

Abstract excerpt

Scientific models are widely used across the natural sciences as an interface between scientific theories and empirical data [1]. Such models play a key role, for example, in the study of human and animal learning, where they express algorithmic hypotheses and relate them to psychology and neuroscience data [2, 3]. These models are traditionally handcrafted by expert researchers based on existing theory or new ins...
