SES 99-10931 - Clark Glymour (University of Pittsburgh) "Methodological Issues in Cognitive Neuropsychology"In collaboration with a post-doctoral assistant, the principal investigator will apply results and frameworks from philosophy of science and computer science to a group of methodological problems in cognitive neuropsychology. This work will result in (i) algorithmic characterizations of which mental processing models are indistinguishable on the basis of behavioral evidence of brain damaged subjects; (ii) characterizations of the reliability of inference to mental processing models from individual and aggregated (in various ways) data from the behavior of brain damaged subjects; (iii) characterizations of mathematically possible data sets and conditions on explanation under which lesioned neural nets cannot explain imagined normal and brain damaged behavior; and (iv) studies of strategies for using imaging and evoked response potential data for inferences to features of cognitive processing architecture.

SES 99-10931 - Clark Glymour (University of Pittsburgh)，“认知神经心理学中的方法论问题”，首席研究员将与一名博士后助理合作，将科学哲学和计算机科学的结果和框架应用于认知神经心理学中的一组方法论问题。这项工作将导致(i)基于脑损伤受试者的行为证据，无法区分心理处理模型的算法特征；（ii）从个体和从脑损伤受试者的行为中（以各种方式）收集的数据推断心理处理模型的可靠性特征；（iii）数学上可能的数据集的特征和解释的条件，在这些条件下，受损的神经网络无法解释想象中的正常和脑损伤行为；（四）利用成像和诱发反应电位数据推断认知加工结构特征的策略研究。
