Running Head : Letting Structure Emerge Letting Structure Emerge : Connectionist and Dynamical Systems Approaches to Understanding Cognition
Connectionist and dynamical systems approaches view human thought, language and behavior as arising, in many cases, as the emergent consequences of simple subor non-cognitive processes. We view the entities that serve as the basis for symbolic approaches, including structured statistical approaches, as potentially misleading, illusory constructs that may, in many instances, have no real basis i...
متن کاملLetting structure emerge: connectionist and dynamical systems approaches to cognition.
Connectionist and dynamical systems approaches explain human thought, language and behavior in terms of the emergent consequences of a large number of simple noncognitive processes. We view the entities that serve as the basis for structured probabilistic approaches as abstractions that are occasionally useful but often misleading: they have no real basis in the actual processes that give rise ...
متن کاملHow do communication systems emerge?
Communication involves a pair of behaviours--a signal and a response--that are functionally interdependent. Consequently, the emergence of communication involves a chicken-and-egg problem: if signals and responses are dependent on one another, then how does such a relationship emerge in the first place? The empirical literature suggests two solutions to this problem: ritualization and sensory m...

متن کاملKilling And Letting Die
Is it worse to kill someone than to let someone die? It seems obvious to common sense that it is worse. We allow people to die, for example, when we fail to contribute money to famine-relief efforts; but even if we feel somewhat guilty, we do not consider ourselves murderers. Nor do we feel like accessories to murder when we fail to give blood, sign an organ-donor card, or do any of the other t...
