Abstract
When using self-adjusting networksystems for modelling cognitive processes one has to remember that network systems have several limitations according to their respective design. For example, there are limits to the capacity which, if exceeded, make the system suddenly ‘forget’ everything in the sense of a ‘total confusion’ because of the superposition of the memory traces. Recently, attempts have been made to solve this problem, for example by implementing the ability to gradually ‘forget’ former memory traces.
