The SHRUTI model demonstrates how complex cognitive functions can be realized by neural circuitry. This paper addresses how some key elements of this circuitry can be learned in a neurally plausible manner. Two basic mechanisms, causal Hebbian learning and recruitment learning, are used to learn relational concepts and causal rules.
