How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Born to Learn: the Inspiration, Progress, and Future of Evolved Plastic Artificial Neural Networks (2017, background): “Modulatory chemicals such as acetylcholine (ACh), norepinephrine (NE), serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA) appear to regulate a large variety of neural functions, from arousal and behavior (Harris-Warrick and Marder, 1991; Hasselmo and Schnell, 1994; Marder, 1996; Katz, 1995; Katz and Frost, 1996), t”
From modulated Hebbian plasticity to simple behavior learning through noise and weight saturation (2012, background): “Oscillation in neural circuitry is believed to play a crucial role both in pattern generation (Marder, 1996; Dickinson, 2006) and higher cognition (Buzaki, 2006).”
Solving the Distal Reward Problem with Rare Correlations (2013, background): “Reward stimuli in nervous systems have been related in the past two decades to changes in the activity of modulatory chemicals (Harris-Warrick & Marder, 1991; Marder, 1996; Marder & Thirumalai, 2002; Hasselmo, 2005; Rolls, 2009), particularly dopamine (Schultz, Apicella, & Ljungberg, 1993; Wise, 200”
Computational Models of Neuromodulation (1998, background): “A long tradition of experimental work in invertebrates has led to a detailed knowledge of the effects of various substances on the behavior of individual neurons and small networks of neurons (see for reviews, Calabrese & De Schutter, 1992; Marder, 1996; Marder & Selverston, 1992).”
