Striatal Low-Threshold Spiking Interneurons Regulate Goal-Directed Learning

open access: yesNeuron, 2019
SUMMARY The dorsomedial striatum (DMS) is critically involved in motor control and reward processing, but the specific neural circuit mediators are poorly understood.

A Unifying Approach to Goal-Directed Evaluation

open access: yesBRICS Report Series, 2001
Goal-directed evaluation, as embodied in Icon and Snobol, is built on the notions of backtracking and of generating successive results, and therefore it has always been something of a challenge to specify and implement. In this article, we address this challenge using computational monads and partial evaluation.<br /> <br />We consider a ...

Goal-directed fluid therapy in major thoracoabdominal surgery [PDF]

open access: yesMedicinski Podmladak
Goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) in thoracic-abdominal surgery has proven to be very challenging for many years. Minimal-invasive hemodynamic monitoring has become the standard in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols.

Condition interference in rats performing a choice task with switched variable- and fixed-reward conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
Because humans and animals encounter various situations, the ability to adaptively decide upon responses to any situation is essential. To date, however, decision processes and the underlying neural substrates have been investigated under specific ...

Measuring habit formation through goal-directed response switching.

open access: yesJournal of experimental psychology. General, 2019
Reward-learning theory views habits as stimulus-response links formed through extended reward training. Accordingly, animal research has shown that actions that are initially goal-directed can become habitual after operant overtraining.

The value of foresight: how prospection affects decision-making

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2011
Traditional theories of decision-making assume that utilities are based on the intrinsic value of outcomes; in turn, these values depend on associations between expected outcomes and the current motivational state of the decision-maker.

A goal modeling framework for self-contextualizable software [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
. Self-contextualizability refers to the system ability to autonomously adapt its behaviour to context in order to maintain its objectives satisfied. In this paper, we propose a modeling framework to deal with self-contextualizability at the requirements

Parahippocampal neurons encode task-relevant information for goal-directed navigation

open access: yeseLife
A behavioral strategy crucial to survival is directed navigation to a goal, such as a food or home location. One potential neural substrate for supporting goal-directed navigation is the parahippocampus, which contains neurons that represent an animal’s ...

Force dysmetria in spinocerebellar ataxia 6 correlates with functional capacity

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6) is a genetic disease that causes pure cerebellar degeneration affecting walking, balance, and coordination. One of the main symptoms of SCA6 is dysmetria.

Neural Circuits for Goal-Directed Sensorimotor Transformations.

open access: yesTrends in Neurosciences, 2019
Precisely wired neuronal circuits process sensory information in a learning- and context-dependent manner in order to govern behavior. Simple sensory decision-making tasks in rodents are now beginning to reveal the contributions of distinct cell types ...
