We describe a connectionist network that performs a com-
plex, cognitive task. In contrast, the majority of neural net-
work research has been devoted to connectionist networks
that perform low-level tasks, such as vision. Higher cogni-
tive tasks, like categorization, analogy, imd similarity may
ultimately rest on alignment of the structured representa-
tions of two domains. W e model human judgments of simi-
larity, as predicted by Structure-Mapping Theory, in the
one-shot mapping task. W e use a localist connectionist
representation in a Maricov Random Field formalism to
perform cross-product matching on graph representations
of propositions. The network performs structured analo-
gies in its domain flexibly and robustly, resolving local and
non-local constraints at multiple levels of abstraction.
