Learning and forgetting using reinforced Bayesian change detection
Table 2
This table summarizes the parameters of the beta prior of the two forgetting factors w and b used in the Learning and flexibility assessment section, as well as the initial prior over the mean and variance.
A low value of initial number of observations κ0 was used, in order to instruct learner to have a large prior variance over the value of the mean. Each subject will be referred by its expected memory at the lower and higher level (i.e. L = long, S = short memory). For instance, the subject number 3 (LS) is expected to have a long first-level memory, but a short second-level memory, which should make her more flexible than subject 2 (SL) after a long training, whom has a short first-level memory but a long second-level memory.
