Artificial cognition vs. artificial intelligence for next-generation autonomous robotic agents

The working hypothesis of this position paper is that the road to the next generation of autonomous robotic agents with cognitive capabilities requires a fully brain-inspired, embodied cognitive approach that avoids the trap of mind-body dualism and aims at the full integration of Bodyware and Cogniware. We name this approach Artificial Cognition (ACo) and ground it in Cognitive Neuroscience.

GROUND - ADVANCING GROUP UNDERSTANDING AND ROBOTS' ADAPTIVE BEHAVIOR - 2ND EDITION

WORKSHOP

The proposed workshop aims to provide a cutting-edge perspective on group interactions in the field of robotics and promote the development of adaptive robots' behavior in multiparty contexts.

Topics of interests include but are not limited to:

Understanding group dynamics through the use of social robots.
Promoting natural communication, mutual understanding and trust in human-robot mixed groups
Designing social robots able to interact with groups
Gamification in multiparty human-robot interactions

When : July 19th, 2024 in Delft, RSS conference
