Controlled and automatic processing in animals and machines with application to autonomous vehicle control (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gurney, K., Hussain, A., Chambers, J., & Abdullah, R. (2009, September). Controlled and automatic processing in animals and machines with application to autonomous vehicle control. Presented at ICANN: International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks, Limassol, Cyprus

There are two modes of control recognised in the cognitive psychological literature. Controlled processing is slow, requires serial attention to sub-tasks, and requires effortful memory retrieval and decision making. In contrast automatic control is...
