Abstract

Studies on reinforcement learning have developed the representation of curiosity, which is a type of intrinsic motivation that leads to high performance in a certain type of tasks. However, these studies have not thoroughly examined the internal cognitive mechanisms leading to this performance. In contrast to this previous framework, we propose a mechanism of intrinsic motivation focused on pattern discovery from the perspective of human cognition. This study deals with intellectual curiosity as a type of intrinsic motivation, which finds novel compressible patterns in the data. We represented the process of continuation and boredom of tasks driven by intellectual curiosity using "pattern matching," "utility," and "production compilation," which are general functions of the adaptive control of thought-rational (ACT-R) architecture. We implemented three ACT-R models with different levels of thinking to navigate multiple mazes of different sizes in simulations, manipulating the intensity of intellectual curiosity. The results indicate that intellectual curiosity negatively affects task completion rates in models with lower levels of thinking, while positively impacting models with higher levels of thinking. In addition, comparisons with a model developed by a conventional framework of reinforcement learning (intrinsic curiosity module: ICM) indicate the advantage of representing the agent's intention toward a goal in the proposed mechanism. In summary, the reported models, developed using functions linked to a general cognitive architecture, can contribute to our understanding of intrinsic motivation within the broader context of human innovation driven by pattern discovery.

认知结构的内在动力:源于模式发现的求知欲。
关于强化学习的研究已经发展了好奇心的表征,好奇心是一种内在动机,会导致在某类任务中取得优异成绩。然而,这些研究并没有深入研究导致这种表现的内在认知机制。与以往的研究框架不同,我们从人类认知的角度出发,提出了一种以模式发现为核心的内在动机机制。本研究将求知欲作为内在动机的一种,它能从数据中发现新颖的可压缩模式。我们用 "模式匹配"、"效用 "和 "生产编译 "来表示求知欲驱动的任务的持续和厌倦过程,这些都是思维理性自适应控制(ACT-R)架构的一般功能。我们在模拟中实施了三种具有不同思维水平的 ACT-R 模型,通过操纵求知欲的强度来浏览多个不同大小的迷宫。结果表明,在思维水平较低的模型中,求知欲会对任务完成率产生负面影响,而在思维水平较高的模型中,求知欲则会对任务完成率产生正面影响。此外,与传统强化学习框架(内在好奇心模块:ICM)所开发的模型进行的比较表明,在所提出的机制中代表代理对目标的意图具有优势。总之,所报告的模型是利用与一般认知架构相关联的功能开发的,有助于我们在由模式发现驱动的人类创新的大背景下理解内在动机。
