Classical conditioning is a fundamental paradigm in the study of learning and thus in understanding cognitive processes and behaviour, for which we need comprehensive and accurate models. This paper aims at evaluating and comparing a collection of influential computational models of classical conditioning by analysing the models themselves and against one another qualitatively. The results will...

In this paper we present a new associative model of classical conditioning based on a neural network. The new model is compared with a number of other well-known models of classical conditioning. The experiments that are used to evaluate the new model are commonly used and they represent the set of tasks that a model of classical conditioning needs to address in order to be successful. The new ...
