However, the tradition in cognitive psychology is to separate out Working Memory and Long Term Memory from the cognitive processes acting thereupon, so we have adhered to that convention. The other changes from Sloman’s diagram are the explicit inclusion of language, representing the hypothesis that language processing is handled in a somewhat special way in the human brain; and the inclusion of a reinforcement component parallel to the perception and action hierarchies, as inspired by intelligent control systems theory (e.g. Albus as mentioned above) and deep learning theory. Of course Sloman’s high level diagram in its original form is intended as inclusive of language and reinforcement, but we felt it made sense to give them more emphasis. Figure 5.2, modeling working memory and reactive processing, is essentially the LIDA di- agram as given in prior papers by Stan Franklin, Bernard Baars and colleagues [BF 09]. The boxes in the upper left corner of the LIDA diagram pertain to sensory and motor processing, which LIDA does not handle in detail, and which are modeled more carefully by deep learning theory. The bottom left corner box refers to action se
