Optimal models of decision-making in dynamic environments
Zachary P. Kilpatrick, William R. Holmes, Tahra L. Eissa +1
Nature is in constant flux, so animals must account for changes in their environment when making decisions. How animals learn the timescale of such changes and adapt their decision…
Bayesian Evidence Accumulation on Social Networks
Bhargav Karamched, Simon Stolarczyk, Zachary Kilpatrick +1
To make decisions we are guided by the evidence we collect, as well as the opinions of friends and neighbors. How do we integrate our private beliefs with information we obtain fro…
Optimizing a jump-diffusion model of a starving forager
Nikhil Krishnan, Zachary P. Kilpatrick
We analyze the movement of a starving forager on a one-dimensional periodic lattice, where each location contains one unit of food. As the forager lands on sites with food, it cons…
Optimizing sequential decisions in the drift-diffusion model
Khanh P Nguyen, Kresimir Josic, Zachary P Kilpatrick
To make decisions organisms often accumulate information across multiple timescales. However, most experimental and modeling studies of decision-making focus on sequences of indepe…
Threshold of front propagation in neural fields: An interface dynamics approach
Gregory Faye, Zachary P Kilpatrick
Neural field equations model population dynamics of large-scale networks of neurons. Wave propagation in neural fields is often studied by constructing traveling wave solutions in…
