Replay in the brain has been viewed as rehearsal or, more recently, as sampling from a
transition model. Here, we propose a new hypothesis: that replay is able to implement a form …

Human reasoning depends on reusing pieces of information by putting them together in new
ways. However, very little is known about how compositional computation is implemented in …

Replay of neuronal sequences in the hippocampus during resting states and sleep play an
important role in learning and memory consolidation. Consistent with these functions, replay …

Dopamine is implicated in representing model-free (MF) reward prediction errors a as well
as influencing model-based (MB) credit assignment and choice. Putative cooperative …

Understanding the visual world is a constructive process. Whilst a frontal-hippocampal
circuit is known to be essential for this task, little is known about the associated neuronal …

In evaluating our choices, we often suffer from two tragic relativities. First, when our lives
change for the better, we rapidly habituate to the higher standard of living. Second, we …

Neural replay is implicated in planning, where states relevant to a task goal are rapidly
reactivated in sequence. It remains unclear whether, during planning, replay relates to an …

When faced with a novel situation, people often spend substantial periods of time
contemplating possible futures. For such planning to be rational, the benefits to behavior …

Exploration is vital for animals and artificial agents who face uncertainty about their
environments due to initial ignorance or subsequent changes. Their choices need to …

Neuroscientists are recording neural activity and behaviour at a rapidly increasing scale.
This provides an unprecedented window into the neural underpinnings of behaviour, while …
