Among the prominent types of neural networks studied by cognitivescientists, Hopfield networks most closely model the high-degree ofinterconnectedness in neurons of the human cortex. The papers byMcClellan et al. (1995) and Maurer (2005) discuss learning systems inthe human brain-mind system and the role of Hopfield networks as modelsfor actual human learning including sequence of items learned. Thisresonates with Chomsky’s emphasis on the role of syntax and wordsequence in language learning.
