Abstract
Introduction Descriptive models of basal ganglia operation have seen a recent increase in interest from the classical idea of direct and indirect pathways towards a more feedback-oriented view of statistic optimality [1]. These new views may prove to be valuable in explaining and finding new treatments for common basal ganglia disorders such as Parkinson's disease beyond current techniques of pure symptom fighting through widespread deep brain stimulation or chemical regulators for increasing tonic levels of dopamine.
