Connectionist mechanisms for cognitive control
An understanding of cognitive control is crucial for understanding high-level cognition and delineating the functional role of prefrontal cortex in supporting complex cognitive operations. In this paper, we approach the problem of cognitive control by examining the control needs of SHRUTI, a neurally plausible and cognitively motivated model of inference and decision-making. It is shown that pr...
متن کاملMechanisms of Cognitive Control
Previous research has identified the prefrontal cortex (PFC) as a brain region that is critical for cognitive control. Currently, theorists remain divided about whether to view the PFC as primarily a coordinative, mnemonic, or inhibitory structure. A theory is presented that attempts to resolve some of the apparent conflicts between the predominant views on PFC control functions. In this theory...
متن کاملMechanisms of cognitive control in cadet pilots
BACKGROUND Optimizing performance of aviators while minimizing risks arising from the exposure to extreme environment, both external and internal, is one of the principles guiding the Israeli Air Force. Young cadets in particular are considered an "at risk" population due to the fact that they have no experience in flight in the first stages of training and are therefore subjects for investigat...
متن کاملCognitive Architectures: Valid Control Mechanisms for Spatial Information Processing
In this paper, we address the issue of how to identify appropriate mechanisms for cognitive control in a system that incorporates complex, spatial information processing to represent human-level competence. Our solution to this difficult issue is to use a cognitive architecture, which contains well-validated mechanisms for many aspects of human cognition, including cognitive control. This appro...
متن کاملConnectionist Learning for Control: An Overview
|This report is an introductory overview of learning by connectionist networks, alsocalled arti cial neural networks, with a focus on the ideas and methods most relevant to the controlof dynamical systems. It is intended both to provide an overview of connectionist ideas for controltheorists and to provide connectionist researchers with an introduction to certain issues in control.<...
