Abstract

The article discusses research exploring the replacement of the declarative memory system in the ACT-R cognitive architecture with a distributional semantics model. ACT-R, while widely used, struggles with scalability in big data applications and lacks a robust mechanism for learning associations between stimuli. The proposed distributional semantics model is shown to effectively account for various cognitive phenomena, such as the primacy and recency effects in free recall and the fan effect in recognition. This model aims to provide a flexible and scalable alternative to ACT-R's declarative memory, bridging different cognitive models. [Extracted from the article]
