Perceptions of perceptual symbols
AbstractVarious defenses of amodal symbol systems are addressed,
including amodal symbols in sensory-motor areas, the causal theory
of concepts, supramodal concepts, latent semantic analysis, and
abstracted amodal symbols. Various aspects of perceptual symbol
systems are clarified and developed, including perception, features,
simulators, category structure, frames, analogy, introspection,
situated action, and development. Particular attention is given
to abstract concepts, language, and computational mechanisms.
