Emotions or Adjectives:
These can be normal emotions like elation, boredom, frustration.
However, usually this term is used for something more specific,
For example, these are considered emotions:
"pointy", "rough", "angular", "multiple", "floppy", "bright".
These are really just adjectives. But describing them as emotions helps me.
Since adjectives are just the feelings an object gives us.
Theory:
A learned cause-->effect relationship.
It may or may not be true or accurate.
Model
The mental representation of physical objects and theories.
This is a simplification* of the real world for processing and storage.
*'distilation', 'reduction', 'decomposition'
Sensory Reduction:
Distilling complex input into simplified mental models for processing and storage.
Multidimentional Hash:
The 'gist' of an object or scene.
1. Used for recognizing a specific object.
2. Or recalling a similar object.
Its purpose is not to provide specific information on the differences. As stated, its purpose is to identify specific objects, or remember similar ones. Higher level processes may use this information to:
- identify faces, objects we own, familiar locations.
- assume cause-effect relationships from similar objects.
- With the high level option of identifying specific differences before jumping to conclusions.
Curvature Recognition
A reduction method for visual input.
This is for visual input only. Meaning it may not be needed if we drop visual input. However, the sweeping over/around the object method of distilling its essence may apply to learning via touch.
Low/High Level:
Low Level: Unconcious mental function.
Medium Level: Like breathing. Automatic, until consciously controlled.
High Level: Always affected by, or part of, the decision making process.
