An attempt to publish the best research on computational cognitive science, with particular emphasis on connectionist and neural network models. Though The MIT Press continues to publish work in this evolving area of research, this series is no longer active.
Drawing on ideas from cognitive linguistics, connectionism, and perception, The Human Semantic Potential describes a connectionist model that learns perceptually grounded semantics for natural language...

Neural Networks for Control highlights key issues in learning control and identifies research directions that could lead to practical solutions for control problems in critical application domains....
Analogy-Making as Perception is based on the premise that analogy-making is fundamentally a high-level perceptual process in which the interaction of perception and concepts gives rise to "conceptual slippages" which allow analogies to be made.
Using the tools of complexity theory, Stephen Judd develops a formal description of associative learning in connectionist networks. He rigorously exposes the computational difficulties in training neural...
This book is the companion volume to Rethinking Innateness: A Connectionist Perspective on Development (The MIT Press, 1996), which proposed a new theoretical framework to answer the question "What...

Rethinking Innateness asks the question, "What does it really mean to say that a behavior is innate?" The authors describe a new framework in which interactions, occurring at all levels, give rise to...

An Integrated Model of Scripts, Lexicon, and Memory
by Risto Miikkulainen
ISBN: 9780262132909
Publisher: The MIT Press
Pub Date: May 20, 1993
Risto Miikkulainen draws on recent connectionist work in language comprehension to create a model that can understand natural language. Using the DISCERN system as an example, he describes a general...
