Space of Reasons and Mathematical Model

Abstract

Inferential relations govern our concept use. In order to understand a concept it has to be located in a space of implications. There are different kinds of conditions for statements, i.e. that the conditions represent different kinds of explanations, e.g. causal or conceptual explanations. The crucial questions is: How can the conditionality of language use be represented. The conceptual background of representation in models is discussed and in the end I propose how implications of propositional logic and conceptual determinations can be represented in a model of a neural network.
