Homeostasis is a prevalent process by which living beings maintain their internal milieu around optimal levels. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that living beings learn to act to predicatively ensure homeostasis (allostasis). A classical…
Homeostasis is a biological process by which living beings maintain their internal balance. Previous research suggests that homeostasis is a learned behaviour. Recently introduced Homeostatic Regulated Reinforcement Learning (HRRL)…
Developments in reinforcement learning (RL) have allowed algorithms to achieve impressive performance in highly complex, but largely static problems. In contrast, biological learning seems to value efficiency of adaptation to a…
