Please note that registration for the workshop is included with your Cog Sci registration at no additional cost. Further information is available on the Cog Sci web site: http://cognitivesciencesociety.org/conference2014/index.html Looking forward to a great workshop!

This year it includes a Special Track on Cognitive Systems that is being co-chaired by Ken Forbus and me. The blurb for the track is below, and the official webpage can be found at http://www.aaai.org/Conferences/AAAI/2015/aaai15cognitive.php. We?re looking for great papers on a variety of topics likely to be relevance to the ACT-R community. ? Paul In an attempt to return to the original goals of artificial intelligence and cognitive science, this special track invites papers in human-level intelligence, integrated cognition, cognitive architectures, and related areas that aim to explain intelligence in computational terms and reproduce a range of human cognitive abilities in computational artifacts. Critically, the track will focus on cognitive capabilities "in the context of complete artificial cognitive systems," hence papers on individual component algorithms will only be accepted if they discuss these algorithms and their functions in conjunction with the rest of the integrated artificial cognitive system. Possible topics include the following, as well as other related integrated cognitive functions and issues: * conceptual inference and reasoning * memory storage and retrieval * natural language understanding and dialogue * social cognition and interaction * problem solving and decision making * introspection and meta-cognition * learning and knowledge capture * perception, imagery and motor control * motivation and emotion * efficiency and real-time performance (i.e., reaching the ~50 msec cognitive cycle time) * methods of integration Papers will be reviewed by qualified reviewers drawn from a special track committee, with general expertise in artificial cognitive systems and specific expertise in at least one of the above areas. We encourage authors to clearly explain how their paper fits into the Special Track on Cognitive Systems and how it answers the call for papers. In cases where a submitted paper is not deemed relevant, it may be considered for review for another special track or the general technical papers track at the discretion of the tracks and conference cochairs. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
