A concise introduction to a complex field, bringing together recent
work in cognitive science and cognitive robotics to offer a solid
grounding on key issues. This book offers a concise and accessible
introduction to the emerging field of artificial cognitive systems.
Cognition, both natural and artificial, is about anticipating the
need for action and developing the capacity to predict the outcome
of those actions. Drawing on artificial intelligence, developmental
psychology, and cognitive neuroscience, the field of artificial
cognitive systems has as its ultimate goal the creation of
computer-based systems that can interact with humans and serve
society in a variety of ways. This primer brings together recent
work in cognitive science and cognitive robotics to offer readers a
solid grounding on key issues. The book first develops a working
definition of cognitive systems-broad enough to encompass multiple
views of the subject and deep enough to help in the formulation of
theories and models. It surveys the cognitivist, emergent, and
hybrid paradigms of cognitive science and discusses cognitive
architectures derived from them. It then turns to the key issues,
with chapters devoted to autonomy, embodiment, learning and
development, memory and prospection, knowledge and representation,
and social cognition. Ideas are introduced in an intuitive, natural
order, with an emphasis on the relationships among ideas and
building to an overview of the field. The main text is
straightforward and succinct; sidenotes drill deeper on specific
topics and provide contextual links to further reading.
