Active Inference, homeostatic regulation and adaptive behavioural control.

TL;DR: This paper argues that the terms 'mind' and 'mental' are pluralistic and confusing, leading to public and scientific confusions, and advocates for a form of eliminativism to address these issues and reduce stigma around vulnerable groups.

TL;DR: Model-based and model-free RL correspond to goal-directed and habitual actions, but not perfectly.

TL;DR: Selfless minds and unlimited bodies are experienced through the attenuation of somatosensory bodily signals.

TL;DR: It is proposed that cognitive control stems from the active maintenance of patterns of activity in the prefrontal cortex that represent goals and the means to achieve them, which provide bias signals to other brain structures whose net effect is to guide the flow of activity along neural pathways that establish the proper mappings between inputs, internal states, and outputs needed to perform a given task.

TL;DR: This paper presents and proves in detail a convergence theorem forQ-learning based on that outlined in Watkins (1989), showing that Q-learning converges to the optimum action-values with probability 1 so long as all actions are repeatedly sampled in all states and the action- values are represented discretely.

TL;DR: Findings in this work indicate that dopaminergic neurons in the primate whose fluctuating output apparently signals changes or errors in the predictions of future salient and rewarding events can be understood through quantitative theories of adaptive optimizing control.
