Metric information in cognitive maps: Euclidean embedding of non-Euclidean environments
Fig 3
(a) Layout of the wormhole maze, redrawn from Warren et al. (2017) [35]. The yellow arrows show wormhole position and magnitude. Touching one end of the arrow instantly and seamlessly teleported subjects to the other end. (b, c) Example directional estimates for object pairs from the “Route-finding and shortcuts” dataset (Experiment 1 in Warren et al. (2017) [35]) and the “Rips and folds” dataset (Experiment 2 in Warren et al. (2017) [35]). The thin arrows show the Euclidean ground truth direction between objects, the short dotted lines the corresponding subject estimates, and the thick solid line the average subject estimate. The length of the estimates has been normalized and does not reflect walked distance. In (c), the colors indicate different goals.
