MOTIVATION
---------

The
collaboration between Cognitive Science and Artificial
Intelligence had
a strong impact for both the disciplines. In AI this
partnership has
driven to the realization of intelligent systems based
on plausible
models of human cognition. In turn, in cognitive science,
the
partnership allowed the development of cognitive models
and
architectures (based on information processing, on representations
and
their manipulation etc.) providing greater understanding on
human
thinking.

The AI and Cognition workshop 2013 (AIC 2013) aims at
putting together
researchers coming from different domains (e.g.,
artificial
intelligence, cognitive science, computer science,
engineering,
philosophy, social sciences, etc.) working on the
interdisciplinary
field of cognitively inspired artificial systems. Both
papers
spotlighting theoretical issues and experimental research in the
field
are welcome. The submission of papers regarding the presentation
of
realized or under-development cognitively inspired systems
and/or
applications is encouraged.

We also particularly welcome papers
raising challenging questions,
innovative ideas and out of the box
thinking and which, as a
consequence, can help to promote interesting
discussions at the
workshop.

Participation of younger researchers and
the submission of research
papers also at early stage of work is
encouraged as well.

TOPICS
------

Topics of interest include but are
not limited to:

- Knowledge Representation and Cognition (e.g. Neural
Networks models,
Ontologies and representation of common sense etc.)
-
Cognitive Architectures (e.g. SOAR, ACT-R) and Cognitive modelling
for
Artificial Systems
- B.I.C.A. (Biologically Inspired Cognitive
Architectures) and systems
- Cognitive Robotics
- Evaluation of
cognitively driven AI systems compared with other AI approaches
-
Cognition and Semantic Web
- Methodological open questions on AI and
Cognition
- Automated reasoning: deductive, probabilistic, diagnostic,
causal
and analogical inference
- Historical and theoretical relation
among Cognitive Science and
Artificial Intelligence
- Knowledge
discovery and acquisition
- Modelling of human learning and knowledge
acquisition in complex domains
- Computational Linguistics, Natural
Language Processing & Understanding
- Logic and Reasoning
- Evolutionary
Computation
- Cognitively inspired Machine Learning
- Computational
Theories of Learning
- Decision Support Systems
