Cognitive Architectures

This special issue on Cognitive Architectures is a collaboration between theNeuron editorial team and Stanislas Dehaene (Collège de France) and Yadin Dudai (Weizmann Institute, Israel). The seed of the idea for this issue originally took formwhile some of the authors in this series collaborated during the initial phase of the European Flagship Project, the ‘‘Human Brain Project.’’ These early d...

Cognitive architectures

A cognitive architecture is a general proposal about the representations and processes that produce intelligent thought. Cognitive architectures have primarily been used to explain important aspects of human thinking such as problem solving, memory, and learning. But they can also be used as blueprints for designing computers and robots that possess some of the cognitive abilities of humans. Th...

Desiderata for cognitive architectures

This article addresses issues in developing cognitive architectures—generic computational models of cognition. Cognitive architectures are believed to be essential in advancing understanding of the mind, and therefore, developing cognitive architectures is an extremely important enterprise in cognitive science. The article proposes a set of essential desiderata for developing cognitive architec...

Report on Cognitive Architectures

This paper discusses our views on the future of the field of cognitive architectures, and how the scientific questions that define it should be addressed. We also report on a set of requirements, and a related architecture design, that we are currently investigating as part of the CoSy project. An Architecture Schema for Embodied Cognitive Systems Nick Hawes, Jeremy Wyatt and Aaron Sloman For f...
