  33. Outline Introduction Probability Theory Decision Theory Information Theory Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  34. Decision Theory Used with probability theory to make optimal decisions Input vector x, target vector t Regression: t is continuous Classification: t will consist of class labels Summary of uncertainty associated is given by Inference problem: is to obtain from data Decision problem: make specific prediction for value of t and take specific actions based on t Inference step Decision step Determine either or . For given x, determine optimal t. Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  35. Medical Diagnosis Problem X-ray image of patient Whether patient has cancer or not Input vector x: set of pixel intensities Output variable t: whether cancer or not C1 = cancer; C2 = no cancer General inference problem is to determine which gives most complete description of situation In the end we need to decide whether to give treatment or not  Decision theory helps do this Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  36. Bayes’ Decision How do probabilities play a role in making a decision? Given input x and classes Ck using Bayes’ theorem Quantities in Bayes theorem can be obtained from p(x,Ck) either by marginalizing or conditioning with respect to the appropriate variable Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  37. Minimum Expected Loss Example: classify medical images as ‘cancer’ or ‘normal’ • Unequal importance of mistakes • Loss or Cost Function given by Loss Matrix • Utility is negative of Loss • Minimize Average Loss Decision Truth • Regions are chosen to minimize Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  38. Why Separate Inference and Decision? Classification problem  broken into two separate stages: – Inference stage: training data is used to learn a model for – Decision stage: posterior probabilities used to make optimal class assignments Three distinct approaches to solving decision problems 1. Generative models: 2. Discriminative models 3. Discriminant functions Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  39. Generative models 1. solve inference problem of determining class-conditional densities for each class separately and the prior probabilities 2. use Bayes’ theorem to determine posterior probabilities 3. use decision theory to determine class membership Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  40. Discriminative models 1. solve inference problem to determine posterior class probabilities 2. Use decision theory to determine class membership Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  41. Discriminant functions 1. Find a function f(x) that maps each input x directly to a class label e.g. two-class problem: f (·) is binary valued f =0 represents C1, f =1 represents C2  Probabilities play no role Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  42. Decision Theory for Regression Inference step Determine Decision step For given x, make optimal prediction, y(x), for t Loss function: Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  43. Outline Introduction Probability Theory Decision Theory Information Theory Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  44. Information theory Quantification of information Degree of surprise: highly improbable  a lot of information highly probable  less information certain  no information Based on probability theory Most important quantity: entropy Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  45. Entropy Entropy is the average amount of information expected, weighted with the probability of the random variable  quantifies the uncertainty involved when we encounter this random variable H[x] 0 p(x) Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  46. The Kullback-Leibler Divergence • Non-symmetric measure of the difference • between two probability distributions • Also called relative entropy Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  47. Mutual Information Two sets of variables: x and y If independent: If not independent: Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience

  48. Mutual Information Mutual information  mutual dependence  shared information  related to the conditional entropy Computational Neuroeconomics and Neuroscience
