....Computational objectives need to be specified independently and may take almost any form, including the recovery of scene attributes or the purposeful execution of a specific visual task. Recent studies on the evolution of complex information processing mechanisms in humans underscore this point [20]. For instance, Pinker and Bloom [21] have argued that natural language is the result of traditional Darwinian selective pressures. In particular, they suggest that human language satisfies two important criteria for when a trait should be attributed to natural selection: first, complex design for ....

....difficult to find LIVING species in the appropriate environments and with the appropriate behavioral similarities as it is to discover sought after fossil species. Finally, evolutionary psychologists have begun to try to reverse engineer the evolved behavioral modules of the (usually human) mind (Cosmides Tooby, 1987). Researchers in this field proceed by first reconstructing the species ancestral environment, then inferring the kinds of adaptive challenges that would have faced that species in the environment in which it evolved. Next comes the postulation of adaptive algorithms and mental mechanisms ....

....the events of today. If we assume that there has been value in increasing the time span and accuracy of anticipation and that filtering process of evolution has amplified that capability in the human species then evolutionary biology could have major significance, as is claimed (Shephard, 1987; Cosmides Tooby, 1987), for understanding cognitive systems. The contribution would be to draw attention to the particular relationships between the species and its ecological niches that would through optimization have favored particular cognitive mechanisms. An outstanding example of this line of reasoning in the ....

Finally, in the late 1980s, Leda Cosmides and John Tooby suggested that a new field of evolutionary psychology could combine the evolutionary framework of sociobiology with the psychological sophistication of cognitive science (Cosmides Tooby, 1987). They outlined a theoretically sophisticated and empirically productive method of analyzing human mental capacities as complex biological adaptations, sculpted over evolutionary time through natural and sexual selection. The field has been burgeoning ever since. Evolutionary psychologists, ....
