متن کاملConnectionist models of language production: lexical access and grammatical encoding
Theories of language production have long been expressed as connectionist models. We outline the issues and challenges that must be addressed by connectionist models of lexical access and grammatical encoding, and review three recent models. The models illustrate the value of an interactive activation approach to lexical access in production, the need for sequential output in both phonological ...
متن کاملRedefining Belief Change Terminology for Implemented Systems
Knowledge representation and reasoning systems run into danger when they attempt to implement traditional belief change theories intended for ideal reasoning agents. Resource limitations can cause a system that guarantees consistency to fail. We present a belief space whose formalization incorporates the fact that it is not guaranteed to be deductively closed (e.g. unknown implicit beliefs migh...
