At #NeurIPS? Curious about how RNNs learn differently in closed-loop (RL) vs. open-loop (supervised) settings?
Come by Poster #2107 on Thursday at 4:30 PM!

Are world models necessary to achieve human-level agents, or is there a model-free short-cut?
Our new #ICML2025 paper tackles this question from first principles, and finds a surprising answer, agents _are_ world models… 🧡

Learning Dynamics of RNNs in Closed-Loop Environments Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) trained on neuroscience-inspired tasks offer powerful models of brain computation. However, typical training paradigms rely on open-loop, supervised settings, whereas ...

All our motor control modelling efforts focus on closed-loop systems for this reason:

"...closed-loop and open-loop training produce fundamentally different learning dynamics, even when using identical architectures and converging to the same final solution."
