Radically Compositional Cognitive Concepts
Despite ample evidence that our concepts, our cognitive architecture, and mathematics itself are all deeply compositional, few models take advantage of this structure. We therefore propose a radically compositional approach to computational neuroscience, drawing on the methods of applied category theory. We describe how these tools grant us a means to overcome complexity and improve interpretability, and supply a rigorous common language for scientific modelling, analogous to the type theories of computer science. As a case study, we sketch how to translate from compositional narrative concepts to neural circuits and back again.
