When Behavior Analysis Meets Machine Learning; Formation of Stimulus Equivalence Classes and Adaptive Learning in Artificial Agents
(OsloMet - StorbyuniversitetetOsloMet - Oslo Metropolitan University, 2021)In this thesis, two well studied subjects in behavior analysis are computationally modeled; formation of stimulus equivalence classes, and adaptive learning. The former is addressed in Study I and Study II, while the latter ... -
Topographic Bias and Variability within Non-Criterial Components of the Operant Class
(OsloMet - Oslo Metropolitan University, 2019)Topographic bias and behavioral variability are two fundamental characteristics of the operant class, and are present to some degree in all experimental analysis of behavior, whether measurable or not. They represent the ... -
Increased Knowledge about Eye Movements. A Systematical Manipulation of Training Directionality in Matching-to-Sample Tasks
(Oslo and Akershus University College of Applied Sciences, 2017)The purpose of the first study was to operationalize eye-movement behavior during conditional discrimination training and testing for equivalence class formation and, furthermore, to provide a conceptual systematic ... -
Reinforcers as Predictors of Outcome in Behavioral Interventions for Autism
(Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2015)There is ample support for interventions based on Applied Behavior Analysis as effective in teaching children with autism skills that they lack. However, studies consistently report large variations in outcomes. Given ... -
Meaningful Stimuli and the Enhancement of Equivalence Class Formation
(Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2015)After the direct training of baseline conditional relations, the emergence of derived relations that have the properties of reflexivity, symmetry and transitivity documents the formation of equivalence classes. Studies ... -
Learning and Remembering in Older Adults and Older Adults with Neurocognitive Disorders
(Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2015)Many countries face a demographic change with an aging society. Accompanying those changes are increased frequency in diseases that have their onset later in life. Among such diseases are neurocognitive disorders (NCDs) ...
