An Analysis of the Ideomotor Principle and TOTE
نویسندگان
چکیده
What does it mean for a system to be goal oriented? In this paper we investigate how goals are represented and how they activate actions. We review the main philosophical and psychological assumptions about the ideomotor principle and we compare it with the TOTE model in cybernetics. We also present three computational architectures that implement goal orientedness, discussing their main peculiarities and limitations with respect to the ideomotor principle and TOTE.

From Goals to Actions and Vice-versa: The Ideomotor Principle, TOTE, and Actual System Implementations
How are goals represented in the brain? How are they learned? How do they activate actions? In this paper we describe and compare two of the most influential models of goal-orientedness: the ideomotor principle (IMP), which was introduced in the psychological literature, and the ‘test, operate, test, exit’ (TOTE) cybernetic model. It emerges from our discussion that the IMP and the TOTE highlig...

متن کاملImproving the quality of images synthesized by discrete cosines transform – regression based method using principle component analysis
Purpose: Different views of an individuals’ image may be required for proper face recognition. Recently, discrete cosines transform (DCT) based method has been used to synthesize virtual views of an image using only one frontal image. In this work the performance of two different algorithms was examined to produce virtual views of one frontal image. Materials and Methods: Two new meth...
