A temporal-interactivist perspective on the dynamics of mental states
Catholijn M. Jonker, Jan Treur · 2003
This paper addresses the dynamics of mental states in relation to the dynamics of the interaction with the external world. It contributes a formalised temporal-interactivist approach to these dynamics based on temporal traces for semantics and a temporal trace language to provide an expressive means to formulate dynamic properties. The approach provides both a foundation for the dynamical and interactivist perspective on cognitive phenomena, and a supporting software environment for practical application.
