Abstract

Various complex systems have an underlying architecture governed by shared organizing principles. We model the natural perceptual schema as a complex system by introducing a hidden variable, called negative schema, based on the idea of Minsky’s negative knowledge. We first show that the negative schema is necessary in recognizing a negated concept and that the positive schema is defined only relative to the negative schema. In the paper, we claim that the schema shares the same underlying architecture of complex systems by proving that the positive and the negative schemas inside the system interact with each other simultaneously and in parallel, and that the suppressor controls the interaction for emerging property.
