Abstract: 

The concepts of «pattern» and «symbol» and their functions are discussed in the context of «thinking» system of combined neuroprocessors. It is shown that the pattern subsystem does play a key role in recording and store of information. The symbol subsystem initiation provides the transition to conventional semantic information and communications with environment. The paradigm of attention within the scheme presented is secured by a parametric effect of symbol subsystem on the image one. It is shown that effect of neuron specification\\specialization is reproduced due to self-organization of the whole system. The system of dynamical nonlinear equations is proposed to combine the pattern and symbol subsystems and thus, to describe the «train of thought» within an individual thinking system.
