Relating Strong Spatial Cognition to Symbolic Problem Solving - An Example
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this note, we discuss and analyse a shortest path finding approach using strong spatial cognition. It is compared with a symbolic graph-based algorithm and it is shown that both approaches are similar with respect to structure and complexity. Nevertheless, the strong spatial cognition solution is easy to understand and even pops up immediately when one has to solve the problem.

Dynamic Assessment( DA) and Evaluation of Problem-solving Skills in Childeren
Introduction: The term dynamic assessment (DA) refers to an assessment, by an active teaching process, of a child's perception, learning, thinking, and problem solving. The process is aimed at modifying an individual's cognitive functioning and observing subsequent changes in learning and problem-solving patterns within the testing situation. DA has been advocated as an alternative and/or sup...
متن کاملExtending Cognitive Architectures with Mental Imagery
Inspired by mental imagery, we present results of extending a symbolic cognitive architecture (Soar) with general computational mechanisms to support reasoning with symbolic, quantitative spatial, and visual depictive representations. Our primary goal is to achieve new capabilities by combining and manipulating these representations using specialized processing units specific to a modality but ...
متن کاملProblem solving methods and knowledge systems: A personal journey to perceptual images as knowledge
I was among those who proposed problem solving methods (PSMs) in the late 1970s and early 1980s as a knowledge-level description of strategies useful in building knowledge-based systems. This paper summarizes the evolution of my ideas in the last two decades. I start with a review of the original ideas. From an artificial intelligence (AI) point of view, it is not PSMs as such, which are essent...
متن کاملA Diagrammatic Reasoning Architecture: Design, Implementation and Experiments
This paper explores the idea that the cognitive state during problem solving diagrams is bi-modal, one of whose components is the traditional predicate-symbolic representation composed of relations between entities in the domain of interest, while a second component is an internal diagrammatic representation. In parallel with the operators in the symbolic representation that are based on symbol...
متن کاملA symbolic/subsymbolic interface protocol for cognitive modeling
Researchers studying complex cognition have grown increasingly interested in mapping symbolic cognitive architectures onto subsymbolic brain models. Such a mapping seems essential for understanding cognition under all but the most extreme viewpoints (namely, that cognition consists exclusively of digitally implemented rules; or instead, involves no rules whatsoever). Making this mapping reduces...
