Discussion of Counting with CAs
- What this system gives is a neural based system for counting.
- What's really new here is a neural based system that moves
from state to state.
- This is done by implementing rules.
- Beyond that, variable binding by synaptic weight change
is used, and that's new too.
- It's not really a very good cognitive model for counting, but it
is the best neurally based one that we're aware of.
- The biggest thing that is not biologically plasuible about
is the switching on and off of spontaneous activation.
- We're starting to build neural systems to do tasks beyond
categorisation.
