Following our success in previous years, ICCM has again joined forces with the Society for Mathematical Psychology to create a conference in which all sessions are open to all attendees, and cross-talk is highly encouraged. MathPsych/ICCM 2022 is a forum for presenting and discussing the complete spectrum of cognitive modeling approaches, including connectionism, symbolic modeling, dynamical systems, Bayesian modeling, and cognitive architectures. Research topics can range from low-level perception to high-level reasoning. We also welcome contributions that use computational models to better understand neuroscientific data. *Two separate events* The online conference format of the previous years was popular, but many attendees also expressed a strong desire for an in-person meeting in the summer of 2022.? To accommodate as many members as possible, we are planning for the 2022 edition of the annual joint meeting of the Society for Mathematical Psychology and the International Conference on Cognitive Modeling will be *split into two completely separate events*: a virtual conference followed by an in-person conference. *Virtual MathPsych/ICCM 2022* will follow the model of the successful 2020 and 2021 meetings, with pre-recorded talks, posters, and a discussion forum on our virtual meeting platform mathpsych.org https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmathpsych.org%2F&data=05%7C01%7Ciccm-l%40lists.psu.edu%7C65014e39f51c448e239108da2c5abd6c%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C0%7C637871065480671855%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=7iBXGx8lfvxKJObDrfkBc8tAT4%2B0PHevu5wvf%2BkgQjo%3D&reserved=0, from *11-15 Jul 22*.

The general goal of the project is to develop an intelligent artificial tutor to improve human learning. One post-doc position will focus on the human side of reinforcement learning through vision and touch, the other on the role of metacognitive confidence and trust. The team also includes another PhD (in ML). Senior project members include Prof. Ophelia Deroy, Prof. Merle Fairhurst, Prof. Maximilian Moll, and Prof. Vincent Hayward (Paris). The appointees will be expected to program and conduct experimental research in the topics relevant to the project (esp. reinforcement learning, multisensory perception) and to write, publish and disseminate research results to participate in the research activities of the project. Requirements The successful candidates will have a PhD in psychology, cognitive neuroscience or related disciplines carried out and published empirical research knowledge of experimental design, statistics, modelling and data analysis strong command of computer programming (R, Python, Matlab) is highly desirable a strong sense of leadership and initiative interest in interdisciplinary projects. Knowledge of the German language is not mandatory. For informal questions about the project: ophelia.deroy at lmu.de Applications (including CV, list of publications, list of courses taught, a writing sample, and a description of possible research project (1000-1500 words) should be submitted via email (one PDF, max. 5MB) by 10 May 22, to Verena Winkler, Coordination Co-Sense. In addition, we ask for two letters of reference, which must be sent by the reviewers directly to Verena Winkler.

To get the man's number of eyes you would need to retrieve the chunk from declarative memory which contains that information. That would be done with a request to the retrieval buffer in the action of a production: +retrieval>. Then in another production you would need to "harvest" that chunk with an =retrieval> condition to get the value from the nbr-eyes slot of the chunk that was retrieved. One note about that model is that you have set the man slot of the chunk that is placed into the goal buffer to the name of the chunk in declarative memory which you want to retrieve. However, the name of the chunk in declarative memory is not something the model can access. The model can only access the contents of those chunks. You will need to use a value in a slot of that chunk, like the name, as a way to retrieve it (although see note * below). If the man slot of the retr-a-man chunk were set to "John Doe", then a retrieval buffer request like this in that production would retrieve the man-1 chunk: +retrieval> name =h0 Hope that helps, Dan * Technically one can use the name of a chunk to create an "indirect request" which would work in this case, but that is not really the appropriate approach for a situation like this. The indirect request mechanism is typically only used in two situations: when one has created a hierarchy of chunks such that a chunk has another chunk in one of its slots which must be retrieved (described in unit 5 of the tutorial) or if the request that needs to be made is being built incrementally in a buffer before making the request (described in unit 8 of the tutorial).
