Research
on cognitive architectures is a very important issue because it specifies
the underlying infrastructure for an intelligent system. Cognitive humanoid
robots should be able to interpret data arising from real-world events
and processes, acquire situated knowledge of their environment, act, and
make or suggest decisions and communicate with people on human terms.
A cognitive architecture for humanoid robots has to fulfil a wide range
of requirements from disciplines such as learning theory, control theory,
theoretical and computational neuroscience, artificial intelligence, human-machine-interaction,
perception-action modelling, planning and decision making, mechatronics
and even biomechanics. The
workshop is a forum to foster discussion among researchers about cognition
and cognitive architectures for humanoid robots which safely coexist with
humans, interactively communicate with humans and usefully manipulate
objects in built-for-human environments. The workshop will focus on the
fundamental questions including: Areas
for discussion include cognitive architectures, control systems, social
interaction, as well as key engineering issues concerning the implementation
of cognitively plausible theories on humanoids. |
