Discussions About 'synthetic Intelligence' In Dissociated Culture System

摘要

The fundamental frameworks for possessing qualia are "embodiment" and the network structures of the relationships between internal modules. We proposed "Anaplastic cognitive agent (ACA)" composed by interactions between sub modules with hierarchical history functions and network structures. The cognitive system has a structure for au-rntonomous self-reference loop. ACA is consisted of meta assemblies and neuron assemblies.There is no qualitative differences between a sensory assembly and a motor assembly, except for connected apparatus. An assembly can be connected to both of sensors and actuators. Including meta assemblies, each assembly is connected each other and there is no strict hierarchical relationships between assemblies. When each unit in meta assembly is activated in turn, connected neuron assembly is activated in series. This series activity may correspond to memory. Connectivity between units are modified according to network activity, and constitute a new structure of graph. Network dynamics is changed by novel pathway added by network activity. A new state of network dynamics by new pathway promotes activation of another pathway. In this manner, the structure of the system developed by a cyclic process. A dissociated culture system can discriminate several distinct spatiotemporal patterns of action potentials evoked by current inputs, and possesses kinds of history function; a history properties of network dynamics, synaptic plasticity, and so on. These features are fundamental for parts to compose ACA.
