The ability to flexibly switch our response to external stimuli according to contextual
information is critical for successful interactions with a complex world. Context-dependent …

Computations involved in processes such as decision-making, working memory, and motor
control are thought to emerge from the dynamics governing the collective activity of neurons …

Decision-making based on noisy evidence requires accumulating evidence and
categorizing it to form a choice. Here we evaluate a proposed feedforward and modular …

Different brain systems have been hypothesized to subserve multiple “experts” that compete
to generate behavior. In reinforcement learning, two general processes, one model-free …

Decision making involves accumulating evidence for or against available options.
Traditional circuit models of evidence accumulation generate firing rates that ramp with …

Cognition is produced by the continuous interactions between many regions across the
brain, but has typically been studied one brain region at a time. How signals in different …

One of the central goals of neuroscience is to gain a mechanistic understanding of how the
dynamics of neural circuits give rise to their observed function. A popular approach towards …

Perceptual judgements of the environment emerge from the concerted activity of neural
populations in decision-making areas downstream of sensory cortex [,,]. When the sensory …

Inferring the presence of causal links from observational data is a challenging task which
typically goes under the name of causal discovery. After reviewing the basic concepts of this …
