Mind is Computation:Philosophy,Logic and Practices
Dingzhou Fei · 2009
This paper argued that the mind is computable and then provided a more fruitful instance and implication for the computing as a discipline,which makes the computation not to include only in natural processes but in human psychology.In philosophy,we stated the physicalism of the philosophy of mind in the minimal stand that the Supervene can explains why the human mind is physical.In logic,we associated Church-Turing-Deutsch Principle with actual physical systems in order to this paper claims in consistent way with the quantum computation and current physical theories.This point is not appointed by the Church-Turing Thesis.In practice,this paper discussed the work of cognitive logics:formulating human minds,like human feelings,sensings and in particular,forgetting and memory.These practices now are very important directions in the study of knowledge representation and reasoning and distribution computation.
