Harnad: Cognition is categorization

(1)…This effect is called "categorical perception" (CP) and in the case of color perception, the CP is innate…
(a) Why is learning of colors so hard?
(b) Why is categorization of objects much easier?
(2)…But we usually cannot make our implicit knowledge explicit, just as the master chicken-sexers could not…
(a) Does implicit knowledge belong to intelligence?
(b) What makes the difference between implicit and explicit knowledges?
(c) What is the difference, between implicit or explicit knowledge and "control modules" (e.g., "stand-up") ?

Biederman: Recognition by components

Problems:
How are those components used?
What are the good components?
How are those components learned?
Why does it take so long to form the coding in the inferotemporal cortex?

Problems for hippocampal patients

Components

Memory components
implicit memory
explicit memory
transfer from implicit to explicit??
our inifite question series

Recognition components
add together (like lemmas make the theorem)
inference if parts are missing
inference concerns spatio-temporal patterns
causal relations, pattern completion, prediction, dejavu

Good components

Solve combinatorial breakdown
Serve pattern completion

Reconstruction loops:
able to treat implicit memory
able to interpret LTM
