Learning to use working memory: a reinforcement learning gating model of rule acquisition in rats

Learning to form appropriate, task-relevant working memory representations is a complex process central to cognition. Gating models frame working memory as a collection of past observations and use reinforcement learning to solve the problem of when to update these observations. Investigation of how...
