CGSC 2001 Lecture Notes - Lecture 11: Blue Triangle, Procedural Memory, Explicit Memory
Document Summary
Modules and central processing: computational cognitive architecture the blueprints of the human cognitive system. We can use it to make models of humans doing particular tasks. Has the basic components and constraints of cognition. Declarative memory is one module modules. (cid:498)working memory(cid:499). Vision example: suppose in the environment is a blue triangle. Imagine you are doing an experiment that (cid:498)if you see a blue triangle, press the right button(cid:499: production system, command to visual module: look in the environment. Once the visual module gets that command, it does its processing (since it"s on a computer it takes a simulated amount of time: visual module will process the blue triangle and put a chunk into its buffer. May output (cid:498)colour, shape(cid:499) as chunked information: when information is in the buffer, can potentially match on that information and carry out the next step.
