New model mimics bee foraging behavior for decision-making

Researchers have developed MAYA, a new imitation learning model inspired by bee foraging behavior. This model utilizes a meta-bandit framework to predict individual bee decisions, incorporating a temporal window to simulate limited memory. MAYA demonstrates superior performance compared to existing imitation and statistical models across various datasets, offering interpretable insights into learning strategies for ecological applications.

    Buzz, Choose, Forget: A Meta-Bandit Framework for Bee-Like Decision Making

    arXiv:2510.16462v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This work introduces MAYA, a sequential imitation learning model based on multi-armed bandits, designed to reproduce and predict individual bees' decisions in contextualized foraging tasks. The model accounts for bees' lim…
