Title
An overview of construction-integration model: a theory of comprehension as a foundation for a new cognitive architecture
Abstract
The Construction-Integration Model is a theory of discourse comprehension that is being used as the foundation for a new Integrated Intelligent Architecture. It is a hybrid model, combining symbolic features with connectionist techniques, that emphasizes bottom-up, data-driven comprehension processes over more rigid top-down search strategies. Recent work has focussed on using the Model to simulate problem solving behavior as might be seen during routine computing tasks. As a consequence of this latter work, we are extending the Model even further so that it can be considered a general purpose Cognitive Architecture so that it can be compared to other architectures.
