I am interested in the mathematical foundation of artificial and natural learning. I am particularly interested in how different systems in the brain collaborate to generate its amazing learning ability. For example, the cortex, the basal ganglia and the dopaminergic system, the limbic system and the hippocampus, and the cerebellum, all have sensibly different roles in learning. Beyond its potential application in neuropsychology, unleashing the brain's learning strategy might also help develop more general and powerful machine learning algorithms
