Sketchnotes from TWiMLAI talk #92: Learning State Representations with Yael Niv
You can listen to the podcast here.
In this interview Yael and I explore the relationship between neuroscience and machine learning. In particular, we discusses the importance of state representations in human learning, some of her experimental results in this area, and how a better understanding of representation learning can lead to insights into machine learning problems such as reinforcement and transfer learning.
