At these points, different properties (dimensions) can be assumed if the point is assumed to be a vector of coordinates for each dimension. At the same time, it is clear that no further properties can be localized from the dimension at the point: i.e. an object cannot be e.g. yellow and blue at the same time, but it can be large and warm at the same time. Ontology/Vectors/Gärdenfors: but these vectors are only cognitive constructs. >Conceptual space. Properties/Object/Individual: all properties are never represented at the same time. Therefore, we can use partial vectors. Vector: representing objects as vectors in a conceptual space means that individuals are treated as a special case by categories where all regions of the domain are reduced to points. >Properties. Individual/categories: there are, however, aspects that distinguish objects (individuals) from categories. >Categories, >Aspects.}, note = { Gä I P.
