I was found not guilty of all charges relating to my clinical standards, and it is wholly unacceptable to imply that the not guilty verdict ofany court is mis...
متن کاملThe Representation of Space and the Space of Representation: a Cognitive Science Introduction to JIGSAW
This paper provides an introduction to JIGSAW, an algorithm for self-organising spatial mapping, capable of mapping unknown sensory systems to unknown motor systems. For computer scientists, scalability comparisons with Self Organising Kohonen Maps and MultiDimensional Scaling are provided. For Neuro-scientists, a model of the organisational processes resulting in retinotopicity and sensory and...

In this article, I survey recent attempts to understand the notion of innateness as it figures in cognitive science and indicate which is likely to prove most fruitful. One approach draws directly on our "commonsense" views about innate traits. Another aims to characterize innatene...
