Cognitive modularity and genetic disorders.
This study challenges the use of adult neuropsychological models for explaining developmental disorders of genetic origin. When uneven cognitive profiles are found in childhood or adulthood, it is assumed that such phenotypic outcomes characterize infant starting states, and it has been claimed that modules subserving these abilities start out either intact or impaired. Findings from two experi...
متن کاملPerceptual Integration, Modularity, and Cognitive Penetration
Imagine a computational system with a proprietary . . . database. Imagine that this device operates to map its characteristic inputs onto its characteristic outputs . . . and that, in the course of doing so, its informational resources are restricted to what its proprietary database contains. That is, the system is “encapsulated” with respect to information that is not in its database. . . . Th...

متن کاملFacing the Unknown Challenge Structure and Modularity in Morphological Computation
Robotics is coming of age: more and more we are developing robots to function outside the controlled environment of the manufacturing oor and the lab. Robots are routinely used to interact physically with the world in places where humans should not, cannot or do not want to physically act. In handling ever more complex environments, we encounter a new class of robotic missions. These consist of...
متن کاملOn the Cognitive Foundations of Modularity
Modularity is a fundamental concept in software engineering with deep roots in human cognition. However, to date few studies of the cognitive roots of modularity have been carried out. To contribute to filling this gap, we examine memory, abstraction and conceptual categorization as viewed in cognitive psychology. We clarify the connections between those topics and hierarchical decomposition. U...
