Knowledge representation is fundamental to the study of mind. All
theories of psychological processing are rooted in assumptions
about how information is stored. These assumptions, in turn,
influence the explanatory power of theories. This book fills a gap
in the existing literature by providing an overview of types of
knowledge representation techniques and their use in cognitive
models.
Organized around types of representations, this book begins with a
discussion of the foundations of knowledge representation, then
presents discussions of different ways that knowledge
representation has been used. Both symbolic and connectionist
approaches to representation are discussed and a set of
recommendations about the way representations should be used is
presented. This work can be used as the basis for a course on
knowledge representation or can be read independently. It will be
useful to students of psychology as well as people in related
disciplines--computer science, philosophy, anthropology, and
linguistics--who want an introduction to techniques for knowledge
representation.
