Cognitive control refers to the ability to perform task-relevant processing in the face of other distractions or other forms of interference, in the absence of strong environmental support. It depends on the integrity of the prefrontal cortex and associated biological structures (e.g., the basal ganglia). Computational models have played an influential role in developing our understanding of this system, and we review current developments in three major areas: dynamic gating of prefrontal representations, hierarchies in the prefrontal cortex, and reward, motivation, and goal-related processing in prefrontal cortex. Models in these and other areas are advancing the field further forward.
认知控制是指在缺乏强大环境支持的情况下,面对其他干扰或其他形式的干扰,执行与任务相关的处理的能力。它依赖于前额叶皮层和相关生物结构(例如基底神经节)的完整性。计算模型在我们对该系统的理解的发展中发挥了重要作用,我们回顾了当前在三个主要领域的发展:前额叶代表的动态门控、前额叶皮层中的层次结构以及前额叶皮层中的奖励、动机和目标相关处理。这些领域和其他领域的模型正在进一步推动该领域的发展。
