    • Embodiment and its Influence on Informational Costs of Decision Density — Atomic Actions vs. Scripted Sequences 

      Riegler, Bente; Polani, Daniel; Steuber, Volker (2021-04-12)
      The importance of embodiment for effective robot performance has been postulated for a long time. Despite this, only relatively recently concrete quantitative models were put forward to characterize the advantages provided ...
    • The Information Complexity of Navigating with Momentum 

      Riegler, Bente; Polani, Daniel; Steuber, Volker (MIT Press, 2022-07-18)
      Many models of organism navigation concern themselves in essence just with the sequence of locations visited and how to manage it. However, larger and bulkier organisms have also to deal with managing momentum. We expect ...
    • On information-optimal scripting of actions 

      Riegler, Bente; Polani, Daniel (MIT Press, 2019-07)
      Animals and humans encounter many tasks which permit ritualized behaviours, essentially fixed action sequences or “scripts”, similar to options known from Reinforcement Learning, but proceeding without intermediate decisions. ...
