Compositionality: A Connectionist Variation on a Classical Theme
Connectionism has been attacked on the grounds that it does not employ compo-sitionally structured representations (e.g., Fodor 8 Pylyshyn, 1988). This article develops the response that Connectionist models can, and in fact sometimes do, employ compositionally structured representations without, thereby. simply implementing a Classical " Language of Thought. " Focusing on the mode of combinati...
متن کاملSymbolically speaking: a connectionist model of sentence production
The ability to combine words into novel sentences has been used to argue that humans have symbolic language production abilities. Critiques of connectionist models of language often center on the inability of these models to generalize symbolically (Fodor & Pylyshyn, 1988; Marcus, 1998). To address these issues, a connectionist model of sentence production was developed. The model had variables...
متن کاملConnectionist inference models
The performance of symbolic inference tasks has long been a challenge to connectionists. In this paper, we present an extended survey of this area. Existing connectionist inference systems are reviewed, with particular reference to how they perform variable binding and rule-based reasoning and whether they involve distributed or localist representations. The benefits and disadvantages of differ...

متن کاملExploring the Symbolic/Subsymbolic Continuum: A Case Study of RAAM
It is di cult to clearly de ne the symbolic and subsymbolic paradigms; each is usually described by its tendencies rather than any one de nitive property. Symbolic processing is generally characterized by hard-coded, explicit rules operating on discrete, static tokens, while subsymbolic processing is associated with learned, fuzzy constraints a ecting continuous, distributed representations. In...
