Delayed match-to-category task.

A sample stimulus is shown during the sample period. The stimulus is characterized by a one-dimensional variable, such as its orientation between 0 and 360 degree. This one-dimensional variable is separated into two categories (for example, 0-180 degree and 180-360 degree). After a delay period, a test stimulus is shown. The agent needs to determine whether the sample and the test stimuli belong to the same category, and report that decision during the decision period.
