Understanding
human thinking and especially human problem solving, reasoning, and decision
making by
·
Understanding
human memory and especially episodic memory and its constructive nature.
·
Understanding
the context-sensitive nature of human cognition.
A
general
cognitive architecture, DUAL, which
integrates the symbolic and connectionist approaches at the micro-level, has
been developed.
All cognitive processes modelled on
DUAL are emergent computations from the collective behaviour and interactions
of many hybrid micro-agents.
A
model
of human reasoning, AMBR,
has been developed based on DUAL. It is supposed to unify
A
model
of human episodic memory has been developed based on DUAL. This model
is integrated with AMBR and demonstrates the interactions between memory and
reasoning. This model predicts that blending of dissimilar episodes can occur
based on two separate analogies with a third episode. This prediction has been
confirmed and thus the model reveals possible mechanisms of memory
reconstruction.
A
model
of human judgment, JUDGEMAP, has been developed based on
DUAL. The model predicts that contrast effects may occur based on irrelevant
characteristics of the environment. These predictions have been confirmed
experimentally.
A
model
of human perception, PEAN, has been developed based on
DUAL and extending AMBR with perceptual capabilities. Interactions between
Understanding
the
role of context for human thinking and the dynamics of context influence
on human cognitive processes. A theory of context has been proposed,
Context and priming effects on reasoning, problem solving, decision-making, and
judgment have been demonstrated in psychological experiments and simulated in
DUAL, AMBR, and JUDGEMAP. Thus they account for the dynamic context-sensitive
nature of human thought.
