Abstract: This paper explores the difference between Connectionist proposals for cognitive
architecture and the sorts of models that have traditionally been assumed in
cognitive science. We claim that the major distinction is that, while both
Connectionist and Classical architectures postulate representational mental states,
the latter but not the former are committed to a symbol-level of representation, or
to a `language of thought': i.e., to representational states that have combinatorial... (Update)
