| Varieties of Emergence in Artificial and Natural Systems  | | | | Abstract
| In different disciplines such as philosophy o f mind, dynamical systems theory, and connec tionism the term 'em ergence' has different jobs to perform. Therefore, various concepts of em ergence are developed and examined. While weaker versions are compatible with prop erty reductionism, stronger versions are not. Within philosophy of mind, particularly within the qualia debate there is a need for a strong notion of emergence, while in discussions of emergent properties of connectionist nets or of dynamical systems one can do with weaker notions of emergence. | | | |
