Emergence definition

Pattern recognition emerges as the automatic or learned ability to identify and interpret familiar sequences, relationships, or structures in mental representations, behavior, or environmental stimuli, through the interaction of perception and representation, where representation emerges from form, and is influenced by the dynamic pattern of movement and transformation, which we perceive as an action unfolding over time.
