Learning in Natural and Connectionist Systems: Experiments and a Model

Modern research in neural networks has led to powerful artificial learning systems, while recent work in the psychology of human memory has revealed much about how natural systems really learn, including the role of unconscious, implicit, memory processes. Regrettably, the two approaches typically ignore each other. This book, combining the approaches, should contribute to their mutual benefit.
New empirical work is presented showing dissociations between implicit and explicit memory perfo...
