Abstract

Cognitive component analysis (COCA) is defined as the process of unsupervised grouping of data such that the ensuing group structure is well-aligned with that resulting from human cognitive activity. We present evidence that independent component analysis of abstract data such as text, social interactions, music, and speech leads to low level cognitive components.
