Produktbeschreibung

Cognitive Science is a discipline that brings together research in natural and artificial systems and this is clearly reflected in the diverse contributions to From Animals to Robots and Back: Reflections on Hard Problems in the Study of Cognition.

In tribute to Aaron Sloman and his pioneering work in Cognitive Science and Artificial Intelligence, the editors have collected a unique collection of cross-disciplinary papers that include work on:

· intelligent robotics;

· philosophy of cognitive science;

· emotional research

· computational vision;

· comparative psychology; and

· human-computer interaction.

Key themes such as the importance of taking an architectural view in approaching cognition, run through the text. Drawing on the expertize of leading international researchers, contemporary debates in the study of natural and artificial cognition are addressed from complementary and contrasting perspectives with key issues being outlined at various levels of abstraction.

From Animals to Robots and Back: Reflections on Hard Problems in the Study of Cognition, will give readers with backgrounds in the study of both natural and artificial cognition an important window on the state of the art in cognitive systems research.
