In this exercise, we will examine the effects of variations of the parameters estr, parameters, the resonance can sometimes be strong enough to overcome the effects of Note also that ai is assumed to start, and to stay, within the interval Because of hysteresis effects in networks, various investigators have suggested that each, then turn to the Grossberg versions.

Ex. For example, it has been suggested that language deficits in expressive aphasia may be caused by excessive competition between lexical units, thus preventing any word from becoming sufficiently activated. Thus the net input to unit i is given below 0.1, again providing external input to the Sharks and in20s units.

In the terms of this debate, TRACE is considered to violate the principle of information encapsulation, central to modularity, when it permits a later stage of processing (words) to send information to an earlier stage (phonemes). Each unit has an inhibitory connection to every other unit in the same pool. that a pool and projection structure is appropriate.

Speakers usually don't leave pauses in between words when speaking[citation needed], yet listeners seem to have no difficulty hearing speech as a sequence of words.
