Abstract

Abstract—The main approaches to modeling human cognitive activity and the underlying neural mechanisms are described. The systematization of cognitive architectures is given, and such popular models as ACT-R, SOAR, CLARION and CHREST is overviewed with examples of their practical application in psychology and neurophysiology. The use of the developed models of cognitive functions makes it possible to predict the effectiveness of perception and selection of information, which knowledge and procedures are required for the optimal solution of the problem, the expected error rate while task performing, and what functional brain system is used to organize behavior. Improvement and addition of existing models of cognitive architecture is considered as a prospect for the development of cognitive neuroscience, understanding the patterns of intelligence formation and the development of artificial intelligence.
