Abstract
Decades ago, Grossberg’s cooperative-competitive models described equally well neurons, competing locally while exhibiting globally coordinated behavior, and production companies in a class of stable competitive markets. Recently, Apolloni posited that the social network is a fractal extension of the brain network. However, little has yet been done to substantiate such ideas. Here we outline an analogy between the ART and ARTMAP neural network operations and some of the essential procedures in leader-electing social organizations. The many similarities point to a possible deep common mechanism.
