Strategic Cognitive Sequencing: A Computational Cognitive Neuroscience Approach
Figure 9
Subgoaling through constraint satisfaction. This figure shows settling of activations of the current state and goal state in both the Semantic Network (see text) and Relation Area (see text). (a) shows activations early in the settling process of a trial. (b) Activations midway into settling for a trial. The activation of two units in the rightmost Goal layer shows the constraint satisfaction process selecting two plausible subgoals. (c) Activations late in settling when they have converged. The network has settled onto the single most relevant subgoal through constraint satisfaction (simultaneous association from the current state and maintained goal state).
