Note

1 In classical, serial-processing models, information is encoded in terms of rules that have a linguistic character. In connectionist or parallel-distributed processing (PDP) models, the mechanisms responsible for the input/output relationships are the units that form the network. Representation is both superpositional and distributed across a set of microfeatures that are not necessarily semantically interpretable. See, e.g., the papers by Andy Clark and Bill Bechtel in Part Three of the volume.
