Document Summary
A: it is decentralized in that processes we run largely independently, with minimal interaction between layers. 2. in the subsumption architecture, layers are important, provide contrast to the vertical decomposition seen in standard symbolic system style robots. A: in subsumption architecture, layers are largely independent. A: behavior based robotics approach is incremental, which is how change happens in nature, new on top of old. 4. when we read about people doing actions, areas of the brain involved in motor processing are active, motor areas are important, not just in producing actions, but in understanding them. 5. from an embodied cognitive standpoint, standard mcgurk effect (sounds, vision) is: A: yawn. not interesting because both sound and vision are perceptual processing and so effect conform to an ordinary sense think act cycle. 6. the experiment using a not b task demonstrates: A: that the error is not about what they know, it"s a motor phenomenon.
