Fodor and Pylyshyn on connectionism: an extended review and brief critique

Fodor and Pylyshyn on connectionism: an extended review and brief critique In this paper, Fodor & Pylyshyn's (1987) critique of Connectionism will be examined. It is worth considering this paper in some detail, since it represents the first comprehensive attack on Connectionism from within Cognitive Science. We shall begin by presenting a summary of the disagreement between Classicists and Connectionists. We shall conclude by presenting an argument on how these two approaches could be reconciled through the notion of ‘movement between levels‘ in a cognitive system. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Artificial Intelligence Review Springer Journals

Abstract

In this paper, Fodor & Pylyshyn's (1987) critique of Connectionism will be examined. It is worth considering this paper in some detail, since it represents the first comprehensive attack on Connectionism from within Cognitive Science. We shall begin by presenting a summary of the disagreement between Classicists and Connectionists. We shall conclude by presenting an argument on how these two approaches could be reconciled through the notion of ‘movement between levels‘ in a cognitive system.
