摘要
Humans are adept at uncovering abstract associations in the world around them, yet the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Intuitively, learning the higher-order structure of 統計 relationships should involve complex mental processes. Here we propose an alternative perspective: that higher-order associations instead arise from natural errors in learning and memory. Using the free energy principle, which bridges 資訊 theory and 貝氏 inference, we derive a maximum 熵 model of people’s internal representations of the transitions between stimuli. Importantly, our model (i) affords a concise analytic form, (ii) qualitatively explains the effects of transition 網絡 structure on human expectations, and (iii) quantitatively predicts human reaction times in probabilistic sequential motor tasks.
