An analysis of the relation between neural activity and behavioral output uncovers two dynamical regimes, shows how to model them, and demonstrates how to find them in experimental data.
During perceptual decision making, maximizing total reward in the long term requires trading reward in the short term for a faster improvement in perceptual representations.
