intelligence will involve a combination of symbolic and non-symbolic processing.” A few of the more important hybrid cognitive architectures are: ¢ CLARION [SZ04] is a hybrid architecture that combines a symbolic component for reason- ing on “explicit knowledge” with a connectionist component for managin

er the various cognitively-relevant properties of the environment from looking at data about the ev- eryday world. We agree in principle, and in fact Ben Kuipers and his colleagues have done some interesting work in this direction, showing that learning algorithms can infer some basics about the structure of s

chematics and production rules or other similar constructs, is that in CogPrime this level of knowledge representation is not the only important one. CLARION [SZ04], as reviewed above, is an example of a cognitive architecture that uses production rules for explicit knowledge representation and then uses a
