AB  - When a decision is made based on a series of samples of evidence, the threshold for decision may change over time. Here we propose a one-shot algorithm that gives the entire threshold from the choice and decision times. Combined with a standard gradient descent procedure, the algorithm can efficiently identify the correct shape of the threshold without any hyperparameter for the threshold.
