Nasuto, S.J., Dautenhahn, K. and Bishop, J. M. (1999) Communication as an Emergent Metaphor for Neuronal Operation. Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS), 1562. pp. 365-379. ISSN 0302-9743

The conventional computational description of brain operations has to be understood in a metaphorical sense. In this paper arguments supporting the claim that this metaphor is too restrictive are presented. A new metaphor more accurately describing recently discovered emergent characteristics of neuron functionality is proposed and its implications are discussed. A connectionist system fitting the new paradigm is presented and its use for attention modelling briefly outlined.
