Note:
The research in this proposal will create a foundation for future in-depth studies that define the mechanisms behind behavioral tasks that involve combinations of neuroeconomic decision-making. Our computational models that will link circuit dynamics to behavior may inspire artificial intelligence research to create brain-inspired algorithms for decision making and learning. By disseminating our research findings, we aim to stimulate scientists in the decision-making field to enlarge their research focus to include several types of decision-making.
