That’s where nonadjacent dependencies (NADs) come in. NADs involve tracking the co-occurrences between elements that are far apart in time. […]
Just like how some people are really good at specific tasks but struggle with general ones, researchers in artificial intelligence have been exploring two different approaches to understanding human reasoning: task-specific models and domain-general mapping. In this study, scientists focused on visual analogical reasoning using images of three-dimensional objects. They compared human performance to that […]
