Journal ArticleDOI
Rational approximations to rational models: Alternative algorithms for category learning
TL;DR: It is argued that Monte Carlo methods provide a source of rational process models that connect optimal solutions to psychological processes and is proposed that a particle filter with a single particle provides a good description of human inferences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bayesian Brains without Probabilities
Adam N. Sanborn,Nick Chater +1 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that Bayesian brains need not represent or calculate probabilities at all and are, indeed, poorly adapted to do so: the brain is a Bayesian sampler.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deciphering the temporal link between pain and sleep in a heterogeneous chronic pain patient sample: a multilevel daily process study
TL;DR: Findings challenge the often-assumed reciprocal relationship between pain and sleep and call for a diversification in thinking of the daily interaction of these 2 processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reconciling intuitive physics and Newtonian mechanics for colliding objects.
TL;DR: A range of effects in mass judgments that have been taken as strong evidence for heuristic use are investigated and show that they are well explained by the interplay between Newtonian constraints and sensory uncertainty.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bridging Levels of Analysis for Probabilistic Models of Cognition
TL;DR: This work examines the possibility that the Monte Carlo principle provides a way to link probabilistic models of cognition to more concrete cognitive and neural processes and examines the relationships between theories at these different levels of analysis.
