The research has been performed to the aim of modeling the structural relationship between perfectionism and life expectancy through the mediating role of moral and spiritual intelligences in young Islamic Azad University directors (Mazandaran Province). This applied method of research in terms of objective is considered as a structural study as far as method of research is concerned. Statistic...

To assist in the evaluation process when determining architectures for new robots and intelligent systems equipped with artificial emotions, it is beneficial to understand the systems that have been built previously. Other surveys have classified these systems on the basis of their technological features. In this survey paper, we present a classification system based on a model similar to that ...

Bridging the gap between symbolic and subsymbolic representations is a – perhaps the – key obstacle along the path from the present state of AI achievement to human-level artificial general intelligence. One approach to bridging this gap is hybridization – for instance, incorporation of a subsymbolic system and a symbolic system into a integrative cognitive architecture. Here we present a detai...

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) within cognitive science (CogSci) necessitates further elaborations on, and modelings of, several indispensable cognitive criteria. We approach this issue by emphasizing the close relation between artificial general intelligence (AGI) and CogSci, and discussing, particularly, “rationality” as one of such indispensable criteria. We give arguments e...

Creativity is usually not considered to be a major issue in current AI and AGI research. In this paper, we consider creativity as an important means to distinguish human-level intelligence from other forms of intelligence (be it natural or artificial). We claim that creativity can be reduced in many interesting cases to cognitive mechanisms like analogymaking and concept blending. These mechani...

In this paper, we deal with the topic of multi-game playing, i.e. creating agents able to autonomously learn to play any game within some arbitrarily defined genre. We describe the motivation for research in this particular area and briefly summarize the most important undertakings. Subsequently, we present a relatively young multi-game playing platform, called the General Game Playing (GGP) an...

Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) or Strong AI aims to create machines with human-like or human-level intelligence, which is still a very ambitious goal when compared to the existing computing and AI systems. After many hype cycles and lessons from AI history, it is clear that a big conceptual leap is needed for crossing the starting line to kick-start mainstream AGI research. This position...

Human intelligence has always been a fascinating subject for scientists. Since the inception of Spearman’s general intelligence in the early 1900s, there has been significant progress towards characterizing different aspects of intelligence and its relationship with structural and functional features of the brain. In recent years, the invention of sophisticated brain imaging devices using Diffu...
