The Syntactic Argument
The representation-without-rules conception of connectionism can't succeed, because rules can always be formulated to describe the network’s representation-level processing.


Such rules can:

  • specify how the parts of a representation are instantiated in nodes and connections (representation instantiation rules), and can
  • characterise the operation of individual nodes in the network (note-level rules).
Anticipated by Terence Horgan and John Tienson, 1991.
