Comparing cognition across major transitions using the hierarchy of formal automata

Colin Klein,
Andrew B. Barron

Abstract: The evolution of cognition can be understood in terms of a few major transitions—changes in the computational architecture of nervous systems that changed what cognitive capacities could be evolved by downstream lineages. We demonstrate how the idea of a major cognitive transition can be modeled in terms of where a system's effective computational architecture falls on the well‐studied hierarchy of formal automata (HFA). We then use recent work connecting artificial neural networks to the HFA, which provides a… Show more
