Sabbah, Daniel – Cognitive Science, 1985
Summarizes an initial foray in tackling artificial intelligence problems using a connectionist approach. The task chosen is visual recognition of Origami objects, and the questions answered are how to construct a connectionist network to represent and recognize projected Origami line drawings and the advantages such an approach would have. (30…

Jarman, Ronald F. – Intelligence, 1980
Children, below- and above-average intelligence, were administered tasks involving matching information between auditory/visual modalities and temporal/spatial presentations. The below-average group made more errors and matching problems were not particular to one modality. Factor analyses did suggest that matching processes varied with level of…
