Abstract

After a summary of AI development, from its neurocybernetic origins to present paradigms, we establish the distinction between the description-based “top-down” approach and the mechanism-based “bottom-up” approach. Then we analyze the different types of neural circuits that repeatedly appear in the sensory, motor and association regions of the nervous system. Finally, we propose an abstraction process that allows us to interpret the functions of these circuits at knowledge level.
