Simultaneous integration versus sequential sampling in multiple-choice decision making Nate Smith July 20, 2008
Decision making • A cognitive process of choosing an opinion or action between ≥ 2 choices • Simultaneous integration accumulates evidence for both choices • Sequential sampling dependent upon active changes in attention for choice action

Simultaneous Integration
Accumulator models used in perceptual decision making Diffusion Model • Does not easily extend to N-choice Leaky Competing Accumulator Model • Does not retain ‘early’ information • Can a network of neurons produce N-choice behavior? Smith and Ratcliffe, 2004
Reduced 2 variable model for perceptual discrimination Mean field approx. Simplified F-I curves Slow NMDA gating variable Constant NS activity Reduced two variable model Wong and Wang, 2006
Generalized N-choice model for perceptual decisions
Multiple alternative simultaneous integration decision making • Similar to previous random-dot motion tasks • Three directions of coherent motion • Subject has to saccade in direction of highest perceived motion (highest coherence) Niwa and Ditterich, 2008
Performance dependent on overall motion Niwa and Ditterich, 2008 • Psychometric and reaction time data are more complex • Simpler mechanism for describing choice behavior?
Research aims • Can a biophysically realistic neural mechanism reproduce results similar to the human psychophysics study? • Investigate whether the psychometric softmax function holds for N-choice tasks • What dynamics underlie N-choice decision making?
Neural data produces variable reaction times and decisions
3 -choice model fits human psychophysics data • Neural model is able to reproduce findings from 3 choice simultaneous integration task
Theoretical psychometric softmax function fits data • Plotting for different coherence values matches up vs. softmax function
Reaction time data Possible lateral inhibition/modulation in area MT responsible for scaling of input with multiple signals?
Sequential Sampling
Neural activity integrates information from each gaze

First gaze biases selection and reaction time • First gaze increases chance of choosing an option when objects have equivalent value Mean reaction time (ms) Probability • Reaction time for objects with first gaze faster
Conclusions • Biophysically realistic reduced model replicates experimental data • Softmax function can work as a general underlying framework for decision making in neural circuits • Neural pools can retain and integrate information even in absence of fixation
