This project examines whether the human mind operates as a symbolic computational device through empirical and computational studies. It aims to test the necessity of symbols in artificial intelligence and cognitive processes by analyzing tasks related to generalization.
Is the human mind a symbolic computational device?
This issue was at the core Chomsky’s critique of Skinner in the 1960s, and motivated the debates regarding Parallel Distributed Processing models developed in the 1980s.
The recent successes of “deep” networks make this issue topical for psychology and neuroscience, and it raises the question of whether symbols are needed for artificial intelligence more generally.One of the innovations of the current project is to identify simple empirical phe…
