Better Living Through Chemistry: Evolving GasNets for Robot Control
1998
Connection science
A series of evolutionary runs with and without the gas modulation active demonstrated that networks incorporating modulation by diffusing gases evolved to produce successful controllers considerably faster ...
This paper introduces a new type of artificial neural network (GasNets) and shows that it is possible to use evolutionary computing techniques to find robot controllers based on them. ...
Many thanks to Pedro Paulo Balbi de Oliveira, Andy Philippides, John Anderson, Emmet Spier, Tom Ziemke, Carmen Ruybal, three anonymous reviewers and various members of the CCNR, COGS and BIOLS for useful ...

Conceptual Representations for Computational Concept Creation
2019
ACM Computing Surveys
The creation of new concepts is a central challenge for any creative system. ...
Additionally, conceptual representations used in particular creative domains, such as language, music, image and emotion, are reviewed separately. ...
There exist collections of evaluation ratings estimated by computational methods, called affect lexicons, such as General Inquirer, 3 WordNet-AFFECT (Strapparava and Valitutti 2004) , SentiWord-Net ( ...

Editorial Commentary
1988
Behavioral and Brain Sciences
A set of hypotheses is formulated for a connectionist approach to cognitive modeling. These hypotheses are shown to be incompatible with the hypotheses underlying traditional cognitive models. ...
The level of analysis is intermediate between those of symbolic cognitive models and neural models. ...

Dynamical systems and cognitive linguistics: toward an active morphodynamical semantics
2005
Neural Networks
Our objective is to categorize the infinite diversity of schematic visual scenes into a small set of grammatical elements and elucidate the topology of language. ...
We suggest that this invariance can be explained by introducing morphodynamical transforms, which erase image details and create virtual structures or singularities (boundaries, skeleton), and call this ...

Metaphilosophy
Computation is considered as an object, as a method, and as a model used in a certain line of philosophical inquiry concerning the relation of mind to matter. ...
As method and model, the computational techniques of artificial life and embodied evolutionary connectionism are used to conduct prosthetically enhanced thought experiments concerning the evolveability ...

Whatever control mechanisms might be necessary are largely expected to emerge as a function of interactions among very simple individual units, and of learning. ...

Modularity, criticality, and evolvability of a developmental gene regulatory network
2019
eLife
Some subcircuits are in a state of criticality, while others are not, which explains the observed differential evolvability of the various expression features in the system. ...
Traditionally, functional modularity is approximated by detection of modularity in network structure. However, the correlation between structure and function is loose. ...
Acknowledgements We would like to thank Anton Crombach for insightful discussions, comments on the manuscript, and for providing the fitted full model used in this analysis. ...

A Connectionist Approach to Spatial Memory and Planning
[chapter]
1998
Perspectives in Neural Computing
The sparse neural network model described here is characterized by: i) the use of a resistive-grid paradigm for backward planning, transforming the view-graph into a dynamic value-map ii) the use of a ...
Two forms of connectionist implementation of these principles are discussed, using a sparse or a distributed representation of states. ...
I gratefully acknowledge comments by M i k e Denham, Philippe Gaussier and Loukas Michalis on earlier versions of the manuscript. ...

Connectionist modelling in psychology: A localist manifesto
2000
Behavioral and Brain Sciences
It can be applied to a number of problems that are difficult for fully distributed models, and its applicability can be extended through comparisons with a number of classic mathematical models of behaviour ...
Localist models are characterized by the presence of localist representations rather than the absence of distributed representations. ...

How brains make chaos in order to make sense of the world
1987
Behavioral and Brain Sciences
Recent "connectionist" models provide a new explanatory alternative to the digital computer as a model for brain function. ...
The results indicate the existence of sensory-and motor-specific information in the spatial dimension of EEG activity and call for new physiological metaphors and techniques of analysis. ...
In our neural model, as in connectionist models, there is no discrete semantic interpretation given to activity in a neural net or to elements of the net; this activity varies not only with the presence ...

Stability and Intermittency in Large-Scale Coupled Oscillator Models for Perceptual Segmentation
1997
Journal of Mathematical Psychology
The coupled map lattice, a system of locally coupled nonlinear maps, is proposed as a model for perceptual segmentation. ...
Patterns of synchronized activity are obtained in the model from high-dimensional, deterministic chaos. These patterns correspond to segmented topographical mappings of the visual field. ...
For the present model we have chosen a provisional solution which models selective facilitation by means of an algorithm. ...
