Friday 27th, Jaime Gómez, will give the seminar To cognize is to categorize: Cognition theory could be Category theory like.
The weak or psychological vision of categories is overcome by a
strong-algebraic one.
Paraphrasing the seminal paper of S. Harnad that points out the
indispensable role played by categories in cognition, the talk
introduces category theory as a relevant tool to deal with the
structure of cognition.
Category theory is proposed as an useful methodological tool for
building a theory of cognition.

The talk will focus on the use of Category theory as an useful methodological tool for
building a theory of cognition.
