From neural constructivism to children's cognitive development: Bridging the gap
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 20 (4):571-572 (1997)
| Abstract | Missing from Quartz & Sejnowski's (Q&S's) unique and valuable effort to relate cognitive development to neural constructivism is an examination of the global emergent properties of adding new neural circuits. Such emergent properties can be studied with computational models. Modeling with generative connectionist networks shows that synaptogenic mechanisms can account for progressive increases in children's representational power. | |||||||||
