Estimating Human Cognitive Capacities: A Response to Landauer
Thomas K. Landauer’s (1986) estimate of the capacity of normal human memory is deeply flawed. His estimate neither reflects the quantity of computational resources necessary for supporting a human-like memory, nor provides any constraint on a theory of such a memory. The roots of the problem lie in a m isunderstanding of the relationship of previous experience to intelligent behavior and theref...
متن کاملLandauer Defended: Reply to Norton
Ladyman et al (2007) proposed a model of the implementation of logical operations by physical processes in order to clarify the exact statement of Landauer’s Principle, and then offered a new proof of the latter based on the construction of a thermodynamic cycle, arguing that if Landauer’s Principle were false it would be possible to harness a machine that violated it to produce a violation of ...
متن کاملCognitive capacities for cooking in chimpanzees.
The transition to a cooked diet represents an important shift in human ecology and evolution. Cooking requires a set of sophisticated cognitive abilities, including causal reasoning, self-control and anticipatory planning. Do humans uniquely possess the cognitive capacities needed to cook food? We address whether one of humans' closest relatives, chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), possess the domai...
متن کاملSymbolic neural networks for cognitive capacities
Pattern recognition (recognizing a pattern from inputs) and recall (describing or predicting the inputs associated with a recognizable pattern) are essential for neural-symbolic processing and cognitive capacities. Without them the brain cannot interact with the world e.g.: form internal representations and recall memory upon which it can perform logic and reason. Neural networks are efficient,...
متن کاملAntibody Response to Human Extracellular HER2 Subdomain Proteins in Mice
Background: In addition to passive immunotherapy using anti-HER2 monoclonal antibodies, active immunotherapy via HER2 targeting is an interesting approach to inducing specific anti-tumor immune responses. We have recently reported the immunogenicity of HER2 subdomains following DNA immunization and HER2 protein boosting. In the present study, we evaluated the immunogenicity of different HER2 ex...
