How the dynamic interplay of cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic pathways shapes the time course of deliberation and commitment

Zhuojun Yu, Timothy Verstynen, Jonathan E. Rubin

This paper develops a computational framework to analyze decision-making dynamics in the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic network, revealing two distinct phases: deliberation and commitment, governed by different pathways.

Learning reweights the decision dynamics of cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic pathways from deliberation to commitment

Zhuojun Yu, Jonathan E. Rubin, Timothy Verstynen

The paper simulates learning in a spiking cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic model to show how subnetworks reshape decision dynamics through dopamine-dependent plasticity, shifting strategies from deliberation to commitment.
