MemberLinks. This is in accordance with the notion of glocal memory, in the language of which the HPAN attractors are the maps and the corresponding ConceptNodes are the keys. Put simply, when a HPAN attractor is recognized, MemberLinks are created between the HPAN nodes comprising the main body of the attra

links (such as SimilarityLinks) • adding "Hebbian weights" to other links (such as SimilarityLinks) • implicitly interpreting other links (such as SimilarityLinks) as HebbianLinks Further, these strategies may potentially be used together. There are some obvious semantic relationships to be used in interpreti

y, there may be patterns across large numbers of nodes that merit encapsulation in individual nodes. For instance, if there are 1000 fairly similar ConceptNodes, it may be better not to merge them all together, but rather to create a single node to which they all link, reifying the category that they collect

licit low-strength SimilarityLinks in the system in these cases, is obviously much cheaper than using them for all cases. We've been talking about SimilarityLinks, but the approach is more broadly applicable. Any symmetric link type can be dealt with about the same way. For instance, it might be useful to kee

s of word sense creation. Suppose we have a WordNode W that has ReferenceLinks to a number of different Con- ceptNodes. A common case is that these ConceptNodes fall into clusters, each one denoting a "sense" of the word. The clusters are defined by the following relationships: 1. ConceptNodes within a clus

ch one denoting a "sense" of the word. The clusters are defined by the following relationships: 1. ConceptNodes within a cluster have high-strength SimilarityLinks to each other 2. ConceptNodes in different clusters have low-strength (i.e. dissimilarity-denoting) Similar- ityLinks to each other When a word is
