Interlevel connections and agent evolution should not be overlooked
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 21 (5):639-640 (1998)
| Abstract | A consideration of underlying neural dynamics and the evolutionary process producing cognitive agents should complement the development of dynamical models of behavior. The geometrical aspects of dynamical systems theory which make it useful in the description of systems acting in an environment are less useful in understanding agents interacting with a range of environments, and may call for supplementation by evolutionary insights. | |||||||||
