Categorization Models Deriving from Connectionist Theory We might characterize the present status of the exemplar model by saying that it has a good claim to recognition as the model of choice for what might be termed the static aspects of categorization-generalization and transfer from learning to new situations, analysis of the structure of categories and category hierarchies, and the like. However, the model has some limitations for coping with the dynamics of learning. Under some conditions, the model yields satisfactory accounts of category learning once its parameters have been evaluated from the data, but it generally can tell us little in advance of an experiment about the probable course of learning or even about expected asymptotes.

Several different sets of stimulus materials were used in different problems, but the formal structures were the same and can be conveniently illustrated in terms of a case in which the stimuli were constructed by combining two types of form with two levels of brightness and two levels of size. The assignments of stimuli to categories are illlustrated for three of the problems in Fig. 2. The simplest logical structure is that of Problem I, in which all dark figures are to be assigned to Category A and all light figures to Category B.
