The recognition and assessment of cognitive (and ultimately intelligent) interaction require transmission of information, or communication. We distinguish between the evaluation of cognition as a peer and as an observer, and analyse several issues that might cause a failure in recognising (and properly assessing) cognition, such as the interface, the time and space resolution, the observer’s li...

pulse oximetry measures the relative concentration of arterial oxygenated hemoglobin and reduced hemoglobin. this paper presents the design of a pulse oximeter, which measures the presence of a third substance, carboxyhemoglobin (hbco), by unfiltered leds at 660 nm, 810 nm, and 940 nm. background information is given on the theory of pulse oximetry. theoretical approximations and calculations w...

Bayesian inference has been shown to be an efficient mechanism for describing models of learning; however, concerns over a lack of constraint in Bayesian models (e.g., Jones & Love, 2011) has limited their influence as being a description of the ‘real’ processes of human cognition. In this paper, we review some of these concerns and argue that cognitive architectures can address these concerns ...

An improved binaural hearing model is proposed that consists of a physiologically motivated signal processing step and a subsequent cognitive model. The model is shown to be capable of correctly detecting and tracking sources while blindly determining the number of active sources based on temporal and spectral information. The complete model is of interest in all areas that need to consider the...

Employing media richness theory and social information processing theory, a model is developed and tested to understand the impact of communication media and bargainers’ interpersonal history on negotiation processes and outcomes. In a laboratory experiment, common multi-media combinations and the interpersonal histories of subjects were manipulated to examine their effects on task performance ...

Cognitive load theory is an instructional theory that uses our knowledge of human cognitive architecture, especially processing limitations of working memory, to enhance effectiveness of instructional design. This paper reviews main assumptions and principles of cognitive load theory and discusses their application to technology-based learning environments. The paper concludes with a brief intr...

Double R Grammar is a linguistic theory of the grammatical encoding and integration of referential and relational meaning in English. Double R Grammar is fundamentally a Cognitive Linguistic theory (Langacker, 1987, 1991; Lakoff, 1988; Talmy, 2003) and the use of the term “grammar” encompasses both meaning and structure as it does in Cognitive Grammar (also known as Cognitive Semantics). Double...
