Abstract Cognitive science has three main motivations for assuming that cognition requires representation. These are the need for intentional (meaningful) access to the world, poverty of perceptual access to that world, and the need to support 'higher-order' cognition (e.g. thinking about things in their absence). All representational systems must also address two major problems (symbol grounding and the need for system-detectable error). Mental representations attempt to address the three motivations but stumble over the two problems. Here we argue that James J Gibson's ecological

A Universal Investigation of $n$-representations of $n$-quivers
noindent We have two goals in this paper. First, we investigate and construct cofree coalgebras over $n$-representations of quivers, limits and colimits of $n$-representations of quivers, and limits and colimits of coalgebras in the monoidal categories of $n$-representations of quivers. Second, for any given quivers $mathit{Q}_1$,$mathit{Q}_2$,..., $mathit{Q}_n$, we construct a new quiver $math...
متن کاملRepresentations of Double Coset Lie Hypergroups
We study the double cosets of a Lie group by a compact Lie subgroup. We show that a Weil formula holds for double coset Lie hypergroups and show that certain representations of the Lie group lift to representations of the double coset Lie hypergroup. We characterize smooth (analytic) vectors of these lifted representations.
متن کاملApplied Cognitive Psychology
In an ongoing debate between two visions of statistical reasoning competency, ecological rationality proponents claim that pictorial representations help tap into the frequency coding mechanisms of the mind, whereas nested sets proponents argue that pictorial representations simply help one to appreciate general subset relationships. Advancing this knowledge into applied areas is hampered by th...
متن کاملThe Representations and Positive Type Functions of Some Homogenous Spaces
‎For a homogeneous spaces ‎$‎G/H‎$‎, we show that the convolution on $L^1(G/H)$ is the same as convolution on $L^1(K)$, where $G$ is semidirect product of a closed subgroup $H$ and a normal subgroup $K $ of ‎$‎G‎$‎. ‎Also we prove that there exists a one to one correspondence between nondegenerat $ast$-representations of $L^1(G/H)$ and representations of ...
متن کاملIrreducibility of the tensor product of Albeverio's representations of the Braid groups $B_3$ and $B_4$
We consider Albeverio's linear representations of the braid groups $B_3$ and $B_4$. We specialize the indeterminates used in defining these representations to non zero complex numbers. We then consider the tensor products of the representations of $B_3$ and the tensor products of those of $B_4$. We then determine necessary and sufficient conditions that guarantee the irreducibility of th...
متن کاملGibson's Reasons for Realism and Gibsonian Reasons for Anti-Realism: An Ecological Approach to Model-Based Reasoning in Science
Representational views of the mind traditionally face a skeptical challenge on perceptual knowledge: if our experience of the world is mediated by representations built upon perceptual inputs, how can we be certain that our representations are accurate and our perceptual apparatus reliable? J. J. Gibson's ecological approach provides an alternative framework, according to which direct perceptio...
