This paper refines a controversial proposal: That core systems belong to a perceptual kind, marked by the format of its representational outputs. Following Susan Carey, this proposal has been understood in terms of core representations having an iconic format, like certain paradigmatically perceptual outputs. I argue that they do not, but suggest that the proposal may be better formulated in terms of a broader analogue format type. Formulated in this way, the proposal accommodates the existence of genuine icons in perception, and avoids otherwise troubling objections.

超越图标：核心认知和感知边界

本文提炼了一个有争议的提议：核心系统属于感知类型，以其代表性输出的格式为标志。在 Susan Carey 之后，这个提议被理解为具有标志性格式的核心表示，例如某些典型的感知输出。我认为他们没有，但建议可以根据更广泛的模拟格式类型更好地制定该提案。以这种方式制定，该提案适应了感知中真正图标的存在，并避免了其他令人不安的反对意见。
