description

Following the usual classifications of cognitive psychologists, we can say that the problem of representation spans three domains: the environment, the brain, and cognitive processes, which are usually studied by different scientists: the physicists, the neurobiologists and the psychologists. With the development of computer science and artificial intelligence new approaches have been introduced, which make possible simulation and implementation of cognitive processes through neural networks and symbolic systems. But the contribution of new methods is not limited to simulation, because they try to provide new models which consider cognitive process as information processing, not as reactions to stimuli.
