In this paper, we propose a hierarchically iterate model of human conceptualization and cognition. Based on the theory of dual structure of cognition and related physiological evidence, we firstly propose the notion of concept space in human brain and a corresponding conceptualization model. Conceptualization is the process of forming concepts in our brain. The concept of cognition process is then defined to introduce our unified iterative cognition model. The hierarchy within the iterative cognition is the logic of human cognition. Some visual cognition examples are employed to investigate our cognition model. With our conceptualization and cognition model, the processes of auditory cognition, visual cognition and more over, language understanding could be explained under a unified theoretical framework. Separate papers describing specific usages of the framework will be published.
