Spontaneous instrumental avoidance learning in social contexts [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Adaptation to our social environment requires learning how to avoid potentially harmful situations, such as encounters with aggressive individuals. Threatening facial expressions can evoke automatic stimulus-driven reactions, but whether their aversive ...

Diminished reward circuit response underlies pain avoidance learning deficits in problem drinkers [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical
Individuals engaging in problem drinking show impaired proactive pain avoidance. As successful pain avoidance is intrinsically rewarding, this impairment suggests reward deficiency, as hypothesized for those with alcohol and substance misuse ...

Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance and Path Planning through Reinforcement Learning

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
The use of reinforcement learning (RL) for dynamic obstacle avoidance (DOA) algorithms and path planning (PP) has become increasingly popular in recent years. Despite the importance of RL in this growing technological era, few studies have systematically

Learning Singularity Avoidance [PDF]

open access: yes2019 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2019
With the increase in complexity of robotic systems and the rise in non-expert users, it can be assumed that task constraints are not explicitly known. In tasks where avoiding singularity is critical to its success, this paper provides an approach, especially for non-expert users, for the system to learn the constraints contained in a set of ...

Sex Differences in Behavior and Learning Abilities in Adult Rats

open access: yesLife, 2023
Laboratory rats have excellent learning abilities and are often used in cognitive neuroscience research. The majority of rat studies are conducted on males, whereas females are usually overlooked. Here, we examined sex differences in behavior and tactile

The face value of feedback: facial behaviour is shaped by goals and punishments during interaction with dynamic faces

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Responding appropriately to others' facial expressions is key to successful social functioning. Despite the large body of work on face perception and spontaneous responses to static faces, little is known about responses to faces in dynamic, naturalistic

Alpha-pinene moderates memory impairment induced by kainic acid via improving the BDNF/TrkB/CREB signaling pathway in rat hippocampus

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionThe potential benefits of natural ingredients in the alleviation of neurodegenerative disorders are of great interest. Alpha-pinene (APN) is an essential oil belonging to monoterpenes with multiple beneficial effects.

The effect of apelin-13 on memory of scopolamine-treated rats and accumulation of amyloid-beta plaques in the hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Basic Research, 2023
Background: Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) cause progressive neuronal loss, resulting in morbidity and mortality. Research is continued on treatment strategies that can tackle the disease's pathophysiology and cease its progression.

Impaired Learning From Errors and Punishments and Maladaptive Avoidance—General Mechanisms Underlying Self-Regulation Disorders?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2021
Self-regulation (SR) is an important human function that relates to quality of life in multiple domains including mental health. Previous studies have found important correlates of low SR including impulsivity and poor emotional regulation; however ...
