“…Navigation map y has previously linked to (i.e., it was pulled into the Navigation Module) the navigation map in TempMap (Equation 97), i.e., as given by the built-in method "use_linkaddress1_map" [Schneider (2023) discusses other links and groups of links to use as the basis for analogical induction]. The difference between navigation map y and TempMap is "WNM' t -difference" (Equation 98).…”

“…This is advantageous for the perception of noisy, imperfect sensory inputs. In the prior literature, it has been shown how, by enhancing some of these feedback pathways, causal reasoning, analogical inductive reasoning, and compositional language readily emerge from the architecture (Schneider, 2023 , 2024 ). The mechanisms behind these emergent properties are discussed in more detail below.…”

The Causal Cognitive Architecture is a brain-inspired cognitive architecture developed from the hypothesis that the navigation circuits in the ancestors of mammals duplicated to eventually form the neocortex. Thus, millions of neocortical minicolumns are functionally modeled in the architecture as millions of “navigation maps.” An investigation of a cognitive architecture based on these navigation maps has previously shown that modest changes in the architecture allow the ready emergence of human cognitive abilities such as grounded, full causal decision-making, full analogical reasoning, and near-full compositional language abilities. In this study, additional biologically plausible modest changes to the architecture are considered and show the emergence of super-human planning abilities. The architecture should be considered as a viable alternative pathway toward the development of more advanced artificial intelligence, as well as to give insight into the emergence of natural human intelligence.
