Published Papers (Refereed)

With a few exceptions noted below, many of the following papers aren't worth reading. They are best viewed as early learning experiences, and much of the work offered in them in rudimentary form has now been superseded by material in my book Mind Out of Matter. If these topics interest you, please save yourself the time and go for the book instead!

  1. Invited interview/position statement (not refereed) on applied artificial life research, in January 2000 special issue of Zeitschrift Künstliche Intelligenz, pp. 36-38, edited by Kerstin Dautenhahn. (2000)
    (This is a combined interview including comments from Takashi Gomi, Steve Grand, and Francesco Mondada.)
  2. 'Functions, Representations, an Zombies', Logic, Language and Computation, vol. 3. L. Cavedon, et al (eds.). CSLI Publications: 217-240. (2000)
    (This summarises information theoretic approaches to three problems in cognitive science; condensed arguments from Mind Out of Matter.)
  3. 'Nature's Subtlety Undermines the Empirical Relevance of Both Dynamical and Computational Hypotheses', Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 21(5): 646-647. (1998)
    (This short piece may be worth a look.)
  4. 'Why Standard "Mental State" Talk is Incoherent', in Proceedings of the Fourth Australasian Cognitive Science Society Conference (CD-ROM published by University of Newcastle, ISBN 07259-10593). (1997, reached CD-ROM in 2000).
  5. Seating Conscious Sensation in a Materially Instantiated Data Structure', Brain Processes, Theories and Models. R. Moreno-Díaz and J. Mira-Mira (eds.). MIT Press: 98-106. (1995)
  6. 'On the End of a Quantum Mechanical Romance', Psyche 2(19) decoherence-1-mulhauser. (1995)
    (The quantum romance paper is marginally useful, although I have now switched to Omnès's rendition of consistent histories for purposes of exploring decoherence.)
  7. 'To Simulate or Not to Simulate: A Problem of Minimising Functional Logical Depth', Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence 929: Advances in Artificial Life. F. Morán, A. Moreno, J.J. Merelo, P. Chacón (eds.). Springer-Verlag: 530-543. (1995)
    (The functional logical depth paper contains several errors and shouldn't be read too seriously, but it contains the germ of a useful idea. A much improved formulation is included in Mind Out of Matter.)
  8. 'Suppose a Wavefunction Collapsed in the Forest…', New Directions in Cognitive Science. P. Pylkkanen and P. Pylkko (eds.). Finnish Artificial Intelligence Society: 134-141. (1995)
  9. 'Materialism and the "Problem" of Quantum Measurement', Minds and Machines 5(2): 207-217. (1995)
  10. 'Biologically Plausible Hybrid Network Design and Motor Control', Proceedings of the European Symposium on Artificial Neural Networks 1994. M. Verleysen (ed.). D facto: 79-84. (1994)
  11. 'What is it Like to be Nagel?', The Philosopher: Journal of the Philosophical Society of England April 1993: 19-24. (1993)
  12. 'Population Coding in a Theoretical Biologically Plausible Network', Proceedings of the European Symposium on Artificial Neural Networks 1993. M. Verleysen (ed.). Editions Quorum: 65-70. (1993)
  13. 'Responsibility and Freedom in a Chaotic World', The Willamette Dialogue 1: 1-10. (1991)
