Abstract

This chapter describes cognitive models that organize implicit symbols into meaningful relational network structures. With an understanding of implicit symbols, there is evidence that informational processes on the cortical level can create and maintain multileveled hierarchically nested graphs and diagram – like structures. This topological model reflects hierarchically ordered knowledge of world structure and processes. Suggested models reflect systems, and they have structural relations embedded in the model. Ability to generate on fly new meaningful graphs and diagrams allows for modeling phenomena of intelligence like analogies, conceptual blending, and many others.
