Here, we argue that these findings can easily be accommodated by conventional conceptions of non-conscious perception and conscious WM. We concl...

This completes a similar result from Sussmann in the sequential case. Keywords-Synchronous random fields, Cellular automata, Gibbs distributions, Boltzmann machines. Neural networks.
