Proposal of Pattern Recognition as a necessary and sufficient Principle to Cognitive Science

Despite the prevalence of the Computational Theory of Mind and the Connectionist Model, the establishing of the key principles of the Cognitive Science are still controversy and inconclusive. This paper proposes the concept of Pattern Recognition as Necessary and Sufficient Principle for a general cognitive science modeling, in a very ambitious scientific proposal. A formal physical definition of the pattern recognition concept is also proposed to solve many key conceptual gaps on the field.

Pattern Recognition Theory of Mind

I propose that pattern recognition, memorization and processing are key concepts that can be a principle set for the theoretical modeling of the mind function. Most of the questions about the mind functioning can be answered by a descriptive modeling and definitions from these principles. An understandable consciousness definition can be drawn based on the assumption that a pattern recognition system can recognize its own patterns of activity. The principles, descriptive modeling and definitions can be a basis for theoretical and applied research on cognitive sciences, particularly at artificial intelligence studies.
