Topic: Map Induction

Humans efficiently reason about space to navigate and forage in new environments, which may, at least in part, depend on an ability to generalize across tasks and organize observations into patterns that can be re-used. Generalization and transfer learning in spatial domains is evident in mirror-invariant neural scene representations, and in the reuse of reference frames and representations across similar environments. Shared reference frames appear in other mammals as well, as, for example, in rodents reusing grid-cell maps for different but perceptually similar environments. However, the fie
