  2. James McClelland (psychologist) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_McClelland...

    McClelland present work focuses on learning, memory processes, and psycholinguistics, still within the framework of connectionist models. He is a former chair of the Rumelhart Prize committee, having collaborated with Rumelhart for many years, and himself received the award in 2010 at the Cognitive Science Society Annual Conference in Portland ...

  3. Word superiority effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_superiority_effect

    The WSE has proven to be an important finding for word recognition models, and specifically is supported by Rumelhart and McClelland's interactive-activation model of word recognition. According to this model, when a reader is presented with a word, each letter in parallel will either stimulate or inhibit different feature detectors (e.g. a ...

  4. TRACE (psycholinguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRACE_(psycholinguistics)

    TRACE is a connectionist model of speech perception, proposed by James McClelland and Jeffrey Elman in 1986. [1] It is based on a structure called "the TRACE", a dynamic processing structure made up of a network of units, which performs as the system's working memory as well as the perceptual processing mechanism. [2]

    They are made up of nodes or artificial neurons which are arrayed and activated in ways that emulate the behaviors of human memory. The IAC model is used by the parallel distributed processing (PDP) Group and is associated with James L. McClelland and David E. Rumelhart; it is described in detail in their book Explorations in Parallel ...

  6. David Rumelhart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Rumelhart

    David Everett Rumelhart (June 12, 1942 – March 13, 2011) [1] was an American psychologist who made many contributions to the formal analysis of human cognition, working primarily within the frameworks of mathematical psychology, symbolic artificial intelligence, and parallel distributed processing.

  7. Connectionism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connectionism

    A 'second wave' connectionist (ANN) model with a hidden layer. Connectionism is an approach to the study of human mental processes and cognition that utilizes mathematical models known as connectionist networks or artificial neural networks. [1] Connectionism has had many "waves" since its beginnings.

  8. Need for affiliation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Need_for_affiliation

    The need for affiliation (N-Affil) is a term which describes a person's need to feel a sense of involvement and "belonging" within a social group.The term was popularized by David McClelland, whose thinking was strongly influenced by the pioneering work of Henry Murray, who first identified underlying psychological human needs and motivational processes in 1938.

  9. Affect control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affect_control_theory

    Affect control theory's computer program predicts the plausible re-identifications, thereby providing a formal model for labeling theory. The sentiment associated with an identity can change to befit the kinds of events in which that identity is involved, when situations keep arising where the identity is deflected in the same way, especially ...
