Description

I will first introduce a biologically-based local circuit model of decision-making, diving into its dynamical inner working, cross-level understanding and experimentally testable predictions. Then I will cover recent progress using training recurrent neural network models by machine learning and, finally, connectome-based modeling of distributed decision processes in a multiregional cortex.
