On the cognitive processes of human perception
Yingxu Wang · 2005
This paper presents a rigorous treatment of human perceptual processes such as emotions, motivations, and attitudes. A set of mathematical models and formally described cognitive processes is developed. The interactions and relationships between motivation and attitude are formally described in real-time process algebra (RTPA). Applications of the mathematical models of motivations and attitudes in software engineering are demonstrated. This work is the detailed description of a part of the layered reference model of the brain (LRMB) that provides a comprehensive model for explaining the fundamental cognitive processes of the brain and their interactions.
