Abstract:Sensitization, a non-associative learning widely observed across phylogeny, is fundamental for adaptation and, thus, survival of living organisms. This paper investigates one form of sensitization, namely pseudo-conditioning, in order to present a new computational model inspired by its characteristics. We develop this model as part of the Iterant Deformable Sensorimotor Medium (IDSM), a recently developed abstract model of sensorimotor behavior formation. The characteristics of the presented model are studied… Show more
