Abstract:
This Thesis describes our work at the boundary between Computer Science and Cognitive (Neuro)Science. In particular, (1) we have worked on methodological improvements to clustering-based meta-analysis of neuroimaging data, which is a technique that allows to collectively assess, in a quantitative way, activation peaks from several functional imaging studies, in order to extract the most robust results in the cognitive domain of interest. Hierarchical clustering is often used in this context, yet it is prone to the problem of non-uniqueness of the solution: a different permutation of the same i

To reflect current views of mental computation as calculating with the head, rather than merely, in the head, the definition was extended to calculating using strategies with understanding (Anghileri, 1999).

The symbol processing or "classical cognitivist" approach to mental computation suggests that the cognitive architecture operates rather like a digital computer.

The connectionist approach, by contrast, suggests that the cognitive architecture should be tho

At the heart of statistical learning lies the concept of uncertainty.

Cognitive agents are able to perform tasks like categorical perception through physical interaction (active categorical perception; ACP), or passively at a distance (distal categorical perception; DCP).

Bilingual language control refers to how bilinguals are able to speak exclusively in one language without the unintended language intruding. Two prominent verbal theories of bilingual language control have been proposed by researchers: the inhibitory control model (ICM) and the lexical selection mechanism model (LSM). The ICM posits that domain-general inhibition is employed in order to suppress the unintended language’s activation. The LSM posits that inhibition is not used; rather a lexical selection mechanism targets only the intended language’s words. In order to better test the theories’

Abstract:
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, 2008.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 101-106).<br>Two key fields of computational neuroscience involve, respectively, the analysis of experimental recordings to understand the functional properties of neurons, and modeling how neurons and networks process sensory information in order to represent the environment. In both of these endeavors, it is crucial to understand and quantify uncertainty - when describing how the brain itself draws conclusions about the physical world, and when the e

Abstract:
This thesis describes work on defining and modelling text comprehension. The basis of my approach is a theory of comprehension as a form of abductive reasoning. The specific problem addressed is inferential control and the management of alternative, competing representations. This problem is related to issues of representation quality, with decisions between representations being made on the basis of quality comparisons. Simultaneously, monitoring of representation quality determines when comprehension halts; in other words, there is some kind of threshold against which quality is compared. In

Abstract:
In dieser Arbeit werden mithilfe der Fokker-Planck-Gleichung die Statistiken, vor allem die Leistungsspektren, von Punktprozessen berechnet, die von mehrdimensionalen Integratorneuronen [Engl. integrate-and-fire (IF) neuron], Netzwerken von IF Neuronen und Entscheidungsfindungsmodellen erzeugt werden. Im Gehirn werden Informationen durch Pulszüge von Aktionspotentialen kodiert. IF Neurone mit radikal vereinfachter Erzeugung von Aktionspotentialen haben sich in Studien die auf Pulszeiten fokussiert sind als Standardmodelle etabliert. Eindimensionale IF Modelle können jedoch beobachtetes Pul
