The Function-Representation Unification Framework
<|reference_start|>The Function-Representation Unification Framework: Cognitive Architectures are the forefront of our research into developing an artificial cognition. However, they approach the problem from a separated memory and program model of computation. This model of computation poses a fundamental problem: the knowledge retrieval heuristic. In this paper we propose to solve this problem by using a new model of computation, one where the memory and the program are united: the Function-Representation. We propose a whole framework about how to implement and use these Function-Representations, and we explore their potential through mathematical definitions and proofs. We also talk about different ways to organise multiple Function-Representations, and explore the kind of functions that these Function-Representations can implement. Finally, we also explore the limitations of our proposal.<|reference_end|>
