Cognition and Multi-Agent Interaction: From Cognitive Modeling to Social Simulation

Cambridge University Press, 2005

This book explores the intersection between cognitive sciences and social sciences. In particular, it explores the intersection between individual cognitive modeling and modeling of multi-agent interaction (social stimulation). The two contributing fields--individual cognitive modeling (especially cognitive architectures) and modeling of...

Modeling Decisions: Information Fusion and Aggregation Operators (Cognitive Technologies)

Springer, 2007

Information fusion techniques and aggregation operators produce the most comprehensive, specific datum about an entity using data supplied from different sources, thus enabling us to reduce noise, increase accuracy, summarize and extract information, and make decisions. These techniques are applied in fields such as economics, biology and...

Probabilistic Approaches to Robotic Perception (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics)

Springer, 2013

This book tries to address the following questions: How should the uncertainty and incompleteness inherent to sensing the environment be represented and modelled in a way that will increase the autonomy of a robot? How should a robotic system perceive, infer, decide and act efficiently? These are two of the challenging questions robotics...

Encyclopedia Of Human Computer Interaction

Idea Group Publishing, 2005

Human computer interaction (HCI) evolved as a recognized discipline that attracts innovation and creativity. For the last 25 years, it inspired new solutions, especially for the benefit of the user as a human being, making the user the focal point that technology should serve rather than the other way around. The advent of the Internet, combined...

The Prehistory of Language (Studies in the Evolution of Language)

Oxford University Press, 2009

'When, why, and how did language evolve?' 'Why do only humans have language?' This book looks at these and other questions about the origins and evolution of language. It does so via a rich diversity of perspectives, including social, cultural, archaeological, palaeoanthropological, musicological, anatomical, neurobiological, primatological, and...

Multimedia Interaction and Intelligent User Interfaces: Principles, Methods and Applications

Springer, 2010

Consumer electronics (CE) devices, providing multimedia entertainment and enabling communication, have become ubiquitous in daily life. However, consumer interaction with such equipment currently requires the use of devices such as remote controls and keyboards, which are often inconvenient, ambiguous and non-interactive. An important...

Knowledge Needs and Information Extraction: Towards an Artificial Consciousness (ISTE)

John Wiley & Sons, 2013

The title of this book is both subversive and ambitious. It is subversive because few academic publications deal with this subject. There has, of course, been work done in robotics on artificially reproducing a “human” movement. One can also find more cognitive works about the way of reasoning – i.e. storing and...

It covers biological, psychoanalytic and cognitive behavioral approaches and provides a pragmatic guide to best practice. As well as discussing issues of severity, treatability and the range of appropriate management options, the content explores the...

Vision in Alzheimer's Disease (Interdisciplinary Topics in Gerontology and Geriatrics, Vol. 34)

Karger, 2004

Visual dysfunction is prevalent in Alzheimer’s disease and in related disorders such as posterior cortical atrophy and Down syndrome. The neuropathology of these disorders affects brain areas that process low-level vision as well as higher-order cognition and attention. This volume spans the range of topics on vision, from structure...

Neural Networks: A Systematic Introduction

Springer, 1996

One of the well-springs of mathematical inspiration has been the continuing attempt to formalize human thought. From the syllogisms of the Greeks, through all of logic and probability theory, cognitive models have led to beautiful mathematics and wide ranging application. But mental processes have proven to be more complex than any of the formal...
