William H. (Bill) Wilson is an Associate Professor in the Artificial Intelligence Group, School of Computer Science and Engineering, University of NSW.
| Bill Wilson is engaged in research on applications of (mathematical)
category theory to cognitive modelling, on the use of self-organising
maps in modelling brain functioning, and on the use of tensor product
networks in modelling relational reasoning. Some of his recent work,
with Steven Phillips, of AIST, Tsukuba, Japan, has focussed on using
universal mapping properties to eliminate ad-hoc choices in constructing
theories for particular instances of systematicity.
A continuing theme is the use of the concept of relational complexity, developed with Graeme Halford (Griffith University and University of Queensland) and Steven Phillips, to measure the difficulty of mental tasks, and the connections between relational complexity and cognitive coordinate systems. |
