Marinov's critique I argue, is vitiated by its failure to recognize the distinctive role of superposition within the distributed connectionist paradigm. The use of so-called subsymbolic distributed encodings alone is not, I agree, enough to justify treating distributed connectionism as a distinctive approach. It has always been clear that microfeatural decomposition is both possible and actual within the confines of recognizably classical approaches. When such approaches also involve statistically-driven learning algorithms — as in the case of ID3 — the fundamental differences become even harder to spot. To see them, it is necessary to consider not just the nature of an acquired input-output function but the nature of the representational scheme underlying it. Differences between such schemes make themselves best felt outside the domain of immediate problem solving. It is in the more extended contexts of performance DURING learning and cognitive change as a result of SUBSEQUENT training on new tasks (or simultaneous training on several tasks) that the effects of superpositional storage techniques come to the fore. I conclude that subsymbols, distribution and statistically driven learning alone are indeed not of the essence. But connectionism is not just about subsymbols and distribution. It is about the generation of whole subsymbol SYSTEMS in which multiple distributed representations are created and superposed.Some of the material in sections 2 and 3 is drawn from Clark, A., ASSOCIATIVE ENGINES: CONNECTIONISM, CONCEPTS AND REPRESENTATIONAL CHANGE (Cambridge, MA MIT/Bradford Books, forthcoming 1993). Thanks to the publishers for permission to reproduce that material here. Thanks also to Chris Thornton for an illuminating discussion of ID3. 相似文献

Critics of the computational connectionism of the last decade suggest that it shares undesirable features with earlier empiricist or associationist approaches, and with behaviourist theories of learning. To assess the accuracy of this charge the works of earlier writers are examined for the presence of such features, and brief accounts of those found are given for Herbert Spencer, William James and the learning theorists Thorndike, Pavlov and Hull. The idea that cognition depends on associative connections among large networks of neurons is indeed one with precedents, although the implications of this for psychological issues have been interpreted variously — not all versions of connectionism are alike. 相似文献

Fodor and Pylyshyn (1988) have argued that the cognitive architecture is not Connectionist. Their argument takes the following form: (1) the cognitive architecture is Classical; (2) Classicalism and Connectionism are incompatible; (3) therefore the cognitive architecture is not Connectionist. In this essay I argue that Fodor and Pylyshyn's defenses of (1) and (2) are inadequate. Their argument for (1), based on their claim that Classicalism best explains the systematicity of cognitive capacities, is an invalid instance of inference to the best explanation. And their argument for (2) turns out to be question-begging. The upshot is that, while Fodor and Pylyshyn have presented Connectionists with the important empirical challenge of explaining systematicity, they have failed to provide sufficient reason for inferring that the cognitive architecture is Classical and not Connectionist. 相似文献

This paper explores that natural relationships between Pragmatic theory of knowing, the dynamic structuring of the mind and thinking suggested by connectionist theory, and the way information is distributed and organized through the world wide web (www). We suggest that these three “innovations” can be brought together to offer a better understanding of the way the human mind works. The internet and the information revolution may finally offer the opportunity to use and develop inductive learning practices and information based social inquiry in ways Pragmatic philosophers envisioned a hundred years ago, while the recent rise of connectionist and cognitive architecture works provides a concrete context for such developments. This confluence of process represents the type of synergy that only history can offer. The information revolution – exemplified by both the rise of connectionism and the internet – is the apotheosis of the Pragmatic revolution – bringing together radical empiricism and democratization of information in community practice. We offer three important realizations in our understanding of how information is organized and thinking progresses made possible by burgeoning virtual communities on the internet – open source thinking, scale-free networks, and interrelationships in the development of blogs to illustrate our thesis. 相似文献

The paper considers the problems involved in getting neural networks to learn about highly structured task domains. A central problem concerns the tendency of networks to learn only a set of shallow (non-generalizable) representations for the task, i.e., to miss the deep organizing features of the domain. Various solutions are examined, including task specific network configuration and incremental learning. The latter strategy is the more attractive, since it holds out the promise of a task-independent solution to the problem. Once we see exactly how the solution works, however, it becomes clear that it is limited to a special class of cases in which (1) statistically driven undersampling is (luckily) equivalent to task decomposition, and (2) the dangers of unlearning are somehow being minimized. The technique is suggestive nonetheless, for a variety of developmental factors may yield the functional equivalent of both statistical AND informed undersampling in early learning. 相似文献

This article compares the potential of classical and connectionist computational concepts for explanations of innate infant knowledge and of its development. It focuses on issues relating to: the perceptual process; the control and form(s) of perceptual-behavioural coordination; the role of environmental structure in the organization of action; and the construction of novel forms of activity. There is significant compatibility between connectionist and classical views of computation, though classical concepts are, at present, better able to provide a comprehensive computational view of the infant. However, Varela's enaction perspective poses a significant challenge for both approaches.An earlier version of this article was presented at the interdisciplinary seminar La Cognition, organized by the International College of Philosophy, Paris, and the Technological University of Compiègne, Chantilly, France, 1989. 相似文献

A review of five distinct artificial neural network implementations on the Connection Machine is presented along with a brief discussion of the more general issues surrounding the implementation of artificial neural network models in parallel. The implementation which proves to be fastest on the Connection Machine is parallel in the training patterns and runs at more than 1300 million interconnects per second. 相似文献

In the first section of the article, we examine some recent criticisms of the connectionist enterprise: first, that connectionist models are fundamentally behaviorist in nature (and, therefore, non-cognitive), and second that connectionist models are fundamentally associationist in nature (and, therefore, cognitively weak). We argue that, for a limited class of connectionist models (feed-forward, pattern-associator models), the first criticism is unavoidable. With respect to the second criticism, we propose that connectionist modelsare fundamentally associationist but that this is appropriate for building models of human cognition. However, we do accept the point that there are cognitive capacities for which any purely associative model cannot provide a satisfactory account. The implication that we draw from is this is not that associationist models and mechanisms should be scrapped, but rather that they should be enhanced.In the next section of the article, we identify a set of connectionist approaches which are characterized by active symbols — recurrent circuits which are the basis of knowledge representation. We claim that such approaches avoid criticisms of behaviorism and are, in principle, capable of supporting full cognition. In the final section of the article, we speculate at some length about what we believe would be the characteristics of a fully realized active symbol system. This includes both potential problems and possible solutions (for example, mechanisms needed to control activity in a complex recurrent network) as well as the promise of such systems (in particular, the emergence of knowledge structures which would constitute genuine internal models). 相似文献

This paper identifies a problem of significance for approaches to adaptive autonomous agent research seeking to go beyond reactive behaviour without resorting to hybrid solutions. The feasibility of recurrent neural network solutions are discussed and compared in the light of experiments designed to test ability to handle long-term temporal dependencies, in a more situated context than hitherto. It is concluded that a general-purpose recurrent network with some processing enhancements can begin to fulfil the requirements of this non-trivial problem. 相似文献

In this paper, we point out that the conditions given in [1] are sufficient but unnecessary for the global asymptotically stable equilibrium of a class of delay differential equations. Instead, we prove that under weaker conditions, it is still global asymptotically stable. 相似文献

One of the most interesting and important properties of connectionist systems is their ability to control sophisticated manipulation robots, i.e. to produce a large number of efficient control commands in real-time. This paper represents an attempt to give a comprehensive report of the basic principles and concepts of connectionism in robotics, with an outline of a number of recent algorithms used in learning control of a manipulation robot. A major concern in this paper is the application of neural networks for off-line and on-line learning of kinematic and dynamic relations used in robot control at the executive hierarchical level. 相似文献

Variable Hidden Layer Sizing in Elman Recurrent Neuro-Evolution 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The relationship between the size of the hidden layer in a neural network and performance in a particular domain is currently an open research issue. Often, the number of neurons in the hidden layer is chosen empirically and subsequently fixed for the training of the network. Fixing the size of the hidden layer limits an inherent strength of neural networks—the ability to generalize experiences from one situation to another, to adapt to new situations, and to overcome the brittleness often associated with traditional artificial intelligence techniques. This paper proposes an evolutionary algorithm to search for network sizes along with weights and connections between neurons.This research builds upon the neuro-evolution tool SANE, developed by David Moriarty. SANE evolves neurons and networks simultaneously, and is modified in this work in several ways, including varying the hidden layer size, and evolving Elman recurrent neural networks for non-Markovian tasks. These modifications allow the evolution of better performing and more consistent networks, and do so more efficiently and faster.SANE, modified with variable network sizing, learns to play modified casino blackjack and develops a successful card counting strategy. The contributions of this research are up to 8.3% performance increases over fixed hidden layer size models while reducing hidden layer processing time by almost 10%, and a faster, more autonomous approach to the scaling of neuro-evolutionary techniques to solving larger and more difficult problems. 相似文献

A fuzzy‐recurrent neural network (FRNN) has been constructed by adding some feedback connections to a feedforward fuzzy neural network (FNN). The FRNN expands the modeling ability of a FNN in order to deal with temporal problems. A basic concept of the FRNN is first to use process or expert knowledge, including appropriate fuzzy logic rules and membership functions, to construct an initial structure and to then use parameter‐learning algorithms to fine‐tune the membership functions and other parameters. Its recurrent property makes it suitable for dealing with temporal problems, such as on‐line fault diagnosis. In addition, it also provides human‐understandable meaning to the normal feedforward multilayer neural network, in which the internal units are always opaque to users. In a word, the trained FRNN has good interpreting ability and one‐step‐ahead predicting ability. To demonstrate the performance of the FRNN in diagnosis, a comparison is made with a conventional feedforward network. The efficiency of the FRNN is verified by the results. 相似文献

This paper discusses a class of discrete time recurrent neural networks with multivalued neurons (MVN), which have complex-valued weights and an activation function defined as a function of the argument of a weighted sum. Complementing state-of-the-art of such networks, our research focuses on the convergence analysis of the networks in synchronous update mode. Two related theorems are presented and simulation results are used to illustrate the theory. 相似文献
