A New Foundation for Representation in Cognitive and Brain Science Category Theory and the Hippocampus /

The purpose of the book is to advance in the understanding of brain function by defining a general framework for representation based on category theory. The idea is to bring this mathematical formalism into the domain of neural representation of physical spaces, setting the basis for a theory of me...
