Abstract
I argue that ideas and models about the mechanisms of neural computation and representation - including computational architecture, representational format, encoding schemes, learning methods, computation-representation coordination, and substrate-dependent aspects - must be tested by studying embodied neural systems. Thus, cognitive computational neuroscience - the study of neural computations over neural representations - must be an embodied research program.
期刊介绍:
Cognitive Neuroscience publishes high quality discussion papers and empirical papers on any topic in the field of cognitive neuroscience including perception, attention, memory, language, action, social cognition, and executive function. The journal covers findings based on a variety of techniques such as fMRI, ERPs, MEG, TMS, and focal lesion studies. Contributions that employ or discuss multiple techniques to shed light on the spatial-temporal brain mechanisms underlying a cognitive process are encouraged.
