Innateness, Learning, and Rationality.
J. P. Spencer et al. (2009) ask readers to reject the nativist–empiricist dialogue and adopt a new theoretical perspective on cognition, focusing on ‘‘developmental process.’’ This commentary argues that the dialogue between nativism and empiricism is a rich source of insight into the nature and development of human knowledge. Indeed, the dialogue is entering a new and exciting phase, in which ...
متن کاملCharacterising Innateness in Artificial and Natural Learning
The purpose of this paper is to propose a refinement of the notion of innateness. If we merely identify innateness with bias, then we obtain a poor characterisation of this notion, since any learning device relies on a bias that makes it choose a given hypothesis instead of another. We show that our intuition of innateness is better captured by a characteristic of bias, related to isotropy. Gen...

متن کاملBounded rationality and learning
Many have objected to the use of the Nash equilibrium (or more generally, Bayesian Nash equilibrium) concept in game theory, and similarly to the use of the rational expectations concept in the theory of competitive markets, on the grounds that the theory assumes too much sophistication and coordination of beliefs on the part of decision-markers. The papers in this volume are among those which ...
متن کاملOn rationality and learning
Much work in machine learning views learning primarily as a process of representation. We propose instead to view learning as the rational interpretation of experience. This provides a unifying, precise framework that illuminates both the strengths and weaknesses of current learning methods and the possibilities for uniformly mechanizing different types of learning. This research was supported ...
