Abstract
Representing objects and concepts as points in low-dimensional shape space defined by distances to other complete object exemplars dr prototypes, expressed as single numbers, misses the key advantages of representation in terms of hierarchically constructed, meaningful features of the environment. Generalisation along statistically significant, near-independent, sparse, cooperative features that stand directly for various aspects of a concept is essential.
