Parallel Distributed Processing

Explorations in the Microstructure of Cognition: Foundations
Book • 1987
This book introduces the theory of parallel distributed processing, which posits that mental processes occur through interactions in a neural network.

It challenges traditional symbolic computation models by suggesting that knowledge is stored in connections between units rather than localized structures.

The volume lays the groundwork for understanding cognition through distributed representations and parallel processing.
