Risk-Sensitive Optimal Feedback Control Accounts for Sensorimotor Behavior under Uncertainty

Risk-sensitivity.

A. Results of the multilinear regression analysis of the low control cost conditions for subject number 5. The line shows the average motor command that the subject produces for a given position (blue - low noise level, yellow - high noise level). The slope of the line is a measure for the position gain of the subject. B. same as in A. but for the high control cost conditions (green - low noise level, red - high noise level). C.–F. Compares various measures between the high and low noise conditions. A risk-neutral controller predicts values to be the same for both condition (dashed line), a risk-averse controller predicts values to fall above the dashed line and a risk-seeking controller below it. C. Negative position gain for the high noise condition plotted against the low noise condition for all six subjects in the low control cost conditions (subject 5 in black, ellipses show the standard deviation). The dashed line represent equality between the gains. D. as C. but for the high control cost conditions. E. Negative velocity gain for the high noise condition plotted against the low noise condition for all six subjects for the low control cost conditions (ellipses show the standard deviation). F. as E. but for the high control cost conditions.
