Abstract
The purpose of this book is at least three-fold.
-
1)
It presents a new computer concept with explicit examples of its applications.
-
2)
It shows how synergetics leads us to the idea that pattern recognition and, more generally, cognitive processes can be conceived as spontaneous pattern formation.
-
3)
It provides the reader with new models of cognitive processes.
