Prefrontal cortex organization: dissociating effects of temporal abstraction, relational abstraction, and integration with FMRI.
The functions of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) underlie higher-level cognition. Varying proposals suggest that the PFC is organized along a rostral-caudal gradient of abstraction with more abstract representations/processes associated with more rostral areas. However, the operational definition of abstraction is unclear. Here, we contrasted 2 prominent theories of abstraction--temporal and relati...
متن کاملAbstraction and Relational learning
ion and relational learning Charles Kemp & Alan Jern Department of Psychology Carnegie Mellon University {ckemp,ajern}@cmu.edu Abstract Most models of categorization learn categories defined by characteristic features but some categories are described more naturally in terms of relations. We present a generative model that helps to explain how relational categories are learned and used. Our mod...
متن کاملPrefrontal organization of cognitive control according to levels of abstraction.
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) plays a crucial role in cognitive control and higher mental functions by maintaining working memory representations of currently relevant information, thereby inducing a mindset that facilitates the processing of such information. Using fMRI, we examined how the human PFC implements mindsets for information at varying levels of abstraction. Subjects solved anagrams g...
متن کاملTemporal logic with predicate abstraction
A predicate linear temporal logic LTLλ= without quantifiers but with predicate abstraction mechanism and equality is considered. The models of LTLλ= can be naturally seen as the systems of pebbles (flexible constants) moving over the elements of some (possibly infinite) domain. This allows to use LTLλ= for the specification of dynamic systems using some resources, such as processes using memory...
متن کاملA Relational Abstraction for Functions
This paper concerns the abstraction of sets of functions for use in abstract interpretation. The paper gives an overview of existing methods, which are illustrated with applications to shape analysis, and formalizes a new family of relational abstract domains that allows sets of functions to be abstracted more precisely than with known approaches, while being still machine-representable.
