Diffusion of Neuromodulators for Temporal Credit Assignment
João Barretto-Bittar, Anna Levina, Emmanouil Giannakakis +1
Biological learning achieves temporal credit assignment despite sparse and imprecise feedback, often relying on neuromodulatory signals acting over space and time. Here, we introdu…
