Are non-semantic morphological effects incompatible with a distributed connectionist approach to lexical processing?

this article. PRINCIPLES UNDERLYING THE CONNECTIONIST APPROACH The connectionist approach instantiates a number of computational principles that are relevant to morphological processing (see Figure 2). We discuss #ve central ones in some detail because they are important for understanding the conditions under which the approach predicts morphological effects in the absence of semantic and/or phonological similarity (for additional background on principles of connectionist modelling, see Chauvin Rumelhart, 1995; Hertz, Krogh, Palmer, 1991; McClelland et al., 1986; Rumelhart, Hinton, Williams, 1986a; Smolensky, Mozer, Rumelhart, 1996)
