The hippocampus as a 'predictive map'
Think about how you choose a route to work, where to move house, or even which move to make in a game like Go. All of these scenarios require you to estimate the likely future reward of your decision. This is tricky because the number of possible scenarios explodes as one peers farther and farther into the future…

When gradient descent is a kernel method
Suppose that we sample a large number N N N of independent random functions f i : R → R f_i \colon \R \to \R f i : R → R from a certain distribution F \Fc F and propose to solve a regression problem by choosing a linear combination f ˉ = ∑ i λ i f i . \bar{f} = \sum_i \lambda_i f_i. f ˉ = i ∑ λ i f i . For…
