Seven of the articles directly address the main competing theories of mental representation – localist and distributed. Four of these articles argue – either on a theoretical basis or with neurophysiological evidence – that abstract concepts, simple or complex, exist (have to exist) at either the single cell level or in an exclusive neural cell assembly. There are three other papers that argue for sparse distributed representation (population coding) of abstract concepts. There are two other papers that discuss neural implementation of symbolic models. The remaining paper deals with learning of motor skills from imagery versus actual execution. A summary of these papers is provided in the Editorial.spaces in the brainlocalist representationabstract cognitive systemcognitive architecturecomplexity analysissingle cell theoryrepresentation of abstract conceptsneural blackboard architecturedistributed representationpopulation codingJonathan Edwardsauth1279434Asim RoyauthJuyang WengauthLeonid PerlovskyauthTarek BesoldauthBOOK9910345962403321Representation in the Brain3015373UNINA
