Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: Singapore : World Scientific Publishing, [2019], c2001Description: 1 online resource (xviii, 231 p.).ISBN: 9789812799586; 9812799583.Subject(s): Brain -- Models | Neural networks (Neurobiology) | ConnectionismGenre/Form: Electronic books.DDC classification: 612.8 Online resources: Access to full text is restricted to subscribers.
Contents:
Nodes and neural networks -- Computers, ai, and the model -- Modules in the brain and in the model -- The basic concepts -- Modeling cognitive processes : an outline -- The model and the simulation program -- The machinery of some mental processes.
Summary: "The connectionist model presented in this book provides tools for addressing such questions. Its nodes represent well-established biological facts combined with observations of the overall behaviors of the system. The model is based on comparing and contrasting brains, computers, and neural networks. It defines a framework for understanding the relationships between the brain and the mind. It can serve both as a starting point for developing Artificial Intelligence applications for all levels of mental activities and as a guide in the search for biological correlates of observed behaviors."--Publisher's website.
