A neural implementation model of feedback-based motor learning

Animals use feedback to rapidly correct ongoing movements in the presence of a perturbation. Repeated exposure to a predictable perturbation… (voir plus) leads to behavioural adaptation that compensates for its effects. Here, we tested the hypothesis that all the processes necessary for motor adaptation may emerge as properties of a controller that adaptively updates its policy. We trained a recurrent neural network to control its own output through an error-based feedback signal, which allowed it to rapidly counteract external perturbations. Implementing a biologically plausible plasticity rule based on this same feedback signal enabled the network to learn to compensate for persistent perturbations through a trial-by-trial process. The network activity changes during learning matched those from populations of neurons from monkey primary motor cortex — known to mediate both movement correction and motor adaptation — during the same task. Furthermore, our model natively reproduced several key aspects of behavioural studies in humans and monkeys. Thus, key features of trial-by-trial motor adaptation can arise from the internal properties of a recurrent neural circuit that adaptively controls its output based on ongoing feedback.

De novo motor learning creates structure in neural activity that shapes adaptation

Animals can quickly adapt learned movements to external perturbations, and their existing motor repertoire likely influences their ease of a… (voir plus)daptation. Long-term learning causes lasting changes in neural connectivity, which shapes the activity patterns that can be produced during adaptation. Here, we examined how a neural population’s existing activity patterns, acquired through de novo learning, affect subsequent adaptation by modeling motor cortical neural population dynamics with recurrent neural networks. We trained networks on different motor repertoires comprising varying numbers of movements, which they acquired following various learning experiences. Networks with multiple movements had more constrained and robust dynamics, which were associated with more defined neural ‘structure’—organization in the available population activity patterns. This structure facilitated adaptation, but only when the changes imposed by the perturbation were congruent with the organization of the inputs and the structure in neural activity acquired during de novo learning. These results highlight trade-offs in skill acquisition and demonstrate how different learning experiences can shape the geometrical properties of neural population activity and subsequent adaptation.

We provide a brief review of the common assumptions about biological learning with findings from experimental neuroscience and contrast them… (voir plus) with the efficiency of gradient-based learning in recurrent neural networks. The key issues discussed in this review include: synaptic plasticity, neural circuits, theory-experiment divide, and objective functions. We conclude with recommendations for both theoretical and experimental neuroscientists when designing new studies that could help bring clarity to these issues.
