Neural reactivation in parietal cortex enhances memory for episodically linked information (2018, background): “According to one view, continuous experiences are segmented into discrete events and organized in memory (10).”
A Conceptual and Computational Model of Moral Decision Making in Human and Artificial Agents (2010, methodology): “The conceptual LIDA model is being added to, most recently by the addition of Zacks’ event segmentation theory (Zacks et al. 2007).”
Hierarchical models of behavior and prefrontal function. (2008, background): “Nevertheless, the basic idea is clear enough: the sequences or streams of action that humans produce can be analyzed into coherent subunits or parts [ 10 ].”
Hierarchically organized behavior and its neural foundations: A reinforcement-learning perspective (2008, background): “In psychology, hierarchy has played a pivotal role in research on organized, goal-directed behavior, from the pioneering work in this area (e.g., Estes, 1972; Lashley, 1951; Miller, Galanter, & Pribram, 1960; Newell & Simon, 1963) through to the most recent studies (e.g., Anderson, 2004; Botvinick &”
Inductive biases for deep learning of higher-level cognition (2020, background): “Experimental evidence from cognitive science clearly supports the notion that the event stream influences the perception of duration (Zacks et al., 2007), although the relationship between novelty and the perception of duration is complicated due to interacting variables such as sequence complexity ”
Divide and Conquer: Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning and Task Decomposition in Humans (2013, background): “A standard experimental paradigm in cognitive psychology involves showing an action sequence, and asking participants to “parse” it by pressing a key when they feel that one subsequence or subtask has ended and a new one has begun (Zacks et al. 2007).”
Flexible shaping: how learning in small steps helps. (2009, neutral): “Another example of using a form of unexpected uncertainty to detect boundaries is the model of Zacks et al. (2007) , Reynolds et al. (2007).”
Are episodic memories special? On the sameness of remembered and imagined event simulation (2018, methodology): “Neuroimaging research has demonstrated that hippocampally-mediated encoding occurs after a change in context (i.e. an event boundary; Zacks et al. 2007; Baldassano et al. 2017), and it is likely that the fully-integrated event representation is transmitted from the hippocampus back to cortical…”
Sparsely Changing Latent States for Prediction and Planning in Partially Observable Domains (2021, background): “In accordance to EST and our sparsely changing latent factor assumption, we introduce Gated L0 Regularized Dynamics (GateL0RD).”
Cognitive Load Theory: Advances in Research on Worked Examples, Animations, and Cognitive Load Measurement (2010, background): “They go on to discuss each of these explanations in detail, drawing on event segmentation theory (Zacks et al. 2007) and on the time-based resource sharing model of working memory (Barrouillet and Camos 2007).”
Reinforcement learning, efficient coding, and the statistics of natural tasks (2015, background): “A proof of concept: hierarchical reinforcement learning One form of structure that has been frequently remarked in human activity is hierarchy [30].”
Teacher vision: expert and novice teachers’ perception of problematic classroom management scenes (2016, background): “The spatial and temporal boundaries of events are notoriously fuzzy, and often vary from one person’s point of view to another (Zacks et al. 2007).”
