Besides the well-documented association between dopamine and reward processing, dopamine is implicated in a variety of functions without a clear relationship to reward prediction error. Fluctuations in dopamine levels influence the subjective perception of time, dopamine bursts precede the generation of motor responses, and the dopaminergic system innervates regions of the brain, including hippocampus and areas in prefrontal cortex, whose function is not uniquely tied to reward. In this manuscript, we propose that a common theme linking these functions is representation, and that prediction errors signaled by the dopamine system, in addition to driving associative learning, can also support the acquisition of adaptive state representations. In a series of simulations, we show how this extension can account for the role of dopamine in temporal and spatial representation, motor response, and abstract categorization tasks. By extending the role of dopamine signals to learning state representations, we resolve a critical challenge to the Reward Prediction Error hypothesis of dopamine function.","PeriodicalId":74289,"journal":{"name":"Neurons, behavior, data analysis and theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82789402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we examine the characteristics of ideal and near-ideal observers in a task of this type. We ask when and how performance depends on task parameters and design, and, in turn, what observer performance tells us about their decision-making process. In the dynamic clicks task subjects hear two streams (left and right) of Poisson clicks with different rates. Subjects are rewarded when they correctly identify the side with the higher rate, as this side switches unpredictably. We show that a reduced set of task parameters defines regions in parameter space in which optimal, but not near-optimal observers, maintain constant response accuracy. We also show that for a range of task parameters an approximate normative model must be finely tuned to reach near-optimal performance, illustrating a potential way to distinguish between normative models and their approximations. In addition, we show that using the negative log-likelihood and the 0/1-loss functions to fit these types of models is not equivalent: the 0/1-loss leads to a bias in parameter recovery that increases with sensory noise. These findings suggest ways to tease apart models that are hard to distinguish when tuned exactly, and point to general pitfalls in experimental design, model fitting, and interpretation of the resulting data.</p>","PeriodicalId":74289,"journal":{"name":"Neurons, behavior, data analysis and theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7166050/pdf/nihms-1576728.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37850901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
