Kant also took over from Descartes and Locke the image of objective knowledge as consisting of an accurate mirroring of the world by mind, as well as the notion that there exists "a… privileged class of representations so compelling that their accuracy cannot be doubted". For Kant this class consisted of representations grounded in the a priori.
These results indicate that semantic representations grounded in the sensory motor system play a role in the composition of sentence-level meaning, even in the case of idioms.
He draws out the theoretical significance of his (and others') empirical work on early vision and attention for foundational issues in cognitive science, including the problem how representations are grounded in the world as well as the distinction between conceptual and nonconceptual representations.
To deal with the high degree of ambiguity present in this setting, we present a generative model that simultaneously segments the text into utterances and maps each utterance to a meaning representation grounded in the world state.
Proportional representation requires that parties be relatively clear and up front about their proposals, so those who believe that democracy is ethically grounded in the appeal to equality tend to favor proportional representation (see Christiano 1996, chap. 6).
Compared to other methods, the representations of the present approach have the advantage that they are always grounded in the perceptual abilities of the robot.
Finally, the solution to the control problem in mirroring is grounded in the final common path architecture of sensorimotor cortex for both motor and simulation-based representations.
An important charge against ethnophilosophy has been that, by simply presenting the teachings of African beliefs in the allegorical modes, the impression is created that indigenous African modes of thought are deeply grounded in their mythical representations of reality, thus leaving the philosophic ideas largely unexplained.
The present research concerns the idea of an "embodied concept" and asks whether a concept as such is fundamentally grounded in implicit sensorimotor representations or is better understood as the product of explicit analytic processes.
This framework has been called microstructure sensitive design (MSD) and is rigorously grounded in spectral representation of invertible linkages between a statistical description of the microstructure (averaged over an ensemble) and its macroscale (effective) properties.
Assessment of the ICDL to Arabic-speaking children as a culturally diverse group was grounded in "representations" and "meaning" rather than in internationalization and localization.
