Conceptions and misconceptions of connectionism
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 26 (5):621-621 (2003)
| Abstract | This commentary examines one aspect of the target article – the comparison of ACT-R with connectionist models. It argues that conceptions of connectionist models should be broadened to cover the whole spectrum of work in this area, especially the so-called hybrid models. Doing so may change drastically ratings of connectionist models, and consequently shed more light on the developing field of cognitive architectures. | |||||||||
