[ACT-R-users] Has 'Conceptual Knowledge' been modeled?

[Alessandro Oltramari]

Hi Sandra, 
please find below the links to two papers describing the general approach mentioned by Jerry.

AAAI Spring Symposium	on Knowledge	Representation and	Reasoning (Stanford, USA, 24-26	March 2014).

Oltramari, A., Lebiere, C. (2012). Using Ontologies in a Cognitive-Grounded System: Automatic Action Recognition in Video Surveillance. Proceedings of STIDS 2012 (7th International Conference on “Semantic Technology for Intelligence, Defense,and Security”).

One advantage of this is that both systems are written in Lisp, so integration is extremely straightforward. SCONE is flexible enough to encode a wide range of conceptual knowledge, if you choose to use it that way. Let me know if you would like more details and I can send you the implementation of my bridge.
