Course Abstracts
Mappings in Thought and Language - Gilles Fauconnier (U of California San
Diego, USA)
The course will deal with some of the general cognitive operations that
underlie the construction of meaning and the use of language. We will
focus on mental space mappings, conceptual blending, analogy, metaphor and
framing. We will examine some important linguistic and non-linguistic
phenomena: counterfactual reasoning, tense and mood, reference and
viewpoint in spoken and signed languages, blending with material anchors,
fictive motion, grammatical constructions, interface design, conceptual
underpinnings of mathematics and other forms of creative thought. Gilles
Fauconnier is the author of a recent book with the same title as well as of
Mental Spaces. He is a professor of Cognitive Science at the University of
California, San Diego and one of the leading cognitive linguists in the
world.
Coherence in Thought and Action - Paul Thagard (U. of Waterloo, Canada)
This course concerns how people make sense of each other and the world they
live in and presents a new theory how coherence play an important role in
thinking, actions, emotions, and in cognition in general.. Making sense is
the activity of fitting something puzzling into a coherent pattern of
mental representations that include concepts, beliefs, goals, and actions.
Much of human cognition can be understood in terms of coherence as
constraint satisfaction, and many of the central problems of philosophy can
be given coherence-based solutions. Paul Thagard is a Prof. of Philosophy
and the author of Conceptual Revolutions, Computational Philosophy of
Science, Mental Leaps, and a number of other books. He is currently the
President-elect of the Cognitive Science Society.
Analogy-Making - Dedre Gentner (Northwestern University, USA), Boicho
Kokinov (New Bulgarian University, Bulgaria)
This course presents the psychological data and theories about how human
beings make analogies: how they retrieve appropriate bases from memory, how
they map the two domains, how they transfer knowledge from one domain to
the other, etc. The role of structural isomorphism between the two domains
and the systematicy principle will be outlined. Other factors as the role
of semantic and pragmatic constraints on mapping and retrieval, as well as
of the representation building process will be discussed. Various theories
and models will be presented and all these models will be compared with the
data from psychological experiments. The developmenta of analogolical
reasoning in children and infants will be discussed. Dedre Gentner is a
Prof. of Psychology and past Chair of the Governing Board of the Cognitive
Science Society. She is on the editorial boards of Cognitive Science,
Psychological Review, Metaphor and Symbolic Activity, Journal of Learning
Sciences, Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Artificial Intelligence.
She is one of the leading persons and the founders of the field of analogy
research.
Concepts and Categorization - James Hampton (City University London, UK)
Summary: The course will review current psychological models of how
conceptual categories are represented in memory. Each model will be
presented together with a critique of its range of applicability, and an
evaluation in terms of (a) empirical evidence and (b) philosophical
arguments about the role that concepts must play in thought and language.
The course will combine a tutorial presentation of current models and
theory with a review of recent empirical work in the field.
Decision Making - Arthur Markman (Columbia University, USA)
This course presents psychological theories and data about how people make
decisions, how they make choices, what are the structures, attributes and
relations they are basing their decisions on, models of choice that borrow
heavily from work in economics, the heuristics and biases approach to
choice first championed by Kahneman and Tversky, a variety of process
models of choice including Payne, Bettman and Johnson's effort-accuracy
model, and the dynamics of choice. Research both in psychology and in
consumer behavior suggests that preferences are often constructed at the
time a choice is made. This construction involves formation of the choice
set, comparison of options, and evaluation of options relative to active
goals. Arthur Markman is a Prof. of Psychology and the author of many
publications on similarity, decision-making, analogy.
Creative Cognition - Thomas Ward (Texas A&M Univ, USA)
This course is concerned with the cognitive processes and structures that
underlie creative or generative thought. It will begin with a brief
examination of traditional approaches to creativity, but will shift quickly
to concentrate primarily on recent developments in cognitive science that
hold the promise of achieving a more complete understanding of creative
functioning. We will cover laboratory and applied research studies, and we
will consider the extent to which research findings support or contradict
more anecdotal reports of the processes involved in real-world instances of
creativity. The recent cognitive science advances will be considered
within the organizing framework of the creative cognition approach. That
approach seeks to understand creative functioning in terms of the
application of fundamental cognitive processes to existing knowledge
structures. It seeks to understand when and how otherwise similar
processes and structures sometimes produce creative outcomes and sometime
produce noncreative outcomes. Thomas Ward is Professor of Psychology and
the author of many publications and books on creative processes.
Cognitive Development - Graeme Halford (U. of Queensland, Australia)
This course will present psychological theories and data on the development
that infants and children undergo in their cognitive abilities. Questions
like what is innate and what is acquired will be in the focus of attention.
Graeme Halford is Prof. of Psychology and author of many books on Cognitive
Development.
Comparative Animal Cognition - Roger Thompson (Franklin & Marshall College,
Lancaster, PA, USA)
A comparative overview of recent advances in the study of animal cognition
and their implications for theory and method in cognitive science. Under
what circumstances - and why - are we willing to attribute purpose,
intelligence, intentionality, mental states, reasoning, language and
personal autonomy to other animals? Are we humans alone in these and other
cognitive capacities such as self-awareness? How might we know?
Brain Organization of Human Memory and Thought - John Gabrieli (Stanford, USA)
This course surveys current theory and findings about the functional neural
architecture of human learning, memory, and thought. Specific topics are
the brain bases of (1) explicit or declarative long-term memory; (2)
implicit or procedural long-term memory; (3) short-term and working memory;
and (4) problem-solving and reasoning capacities. The consequences of
focal (stroke, resection) and degenerative (Huntington's disease,
Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, aging) lesions upon specific
components of learning, memory, and thought are reviewed. Also reviewed
are recent findings with functional neuroimaging techniques such as
positron emission tomography (PET) and functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI). These findings are related to cognitive research to
provide a cognitive neuroscience perspective on human learning, memory, and
thought.
Connectionist Models of High-Level Cognition - John Barnden (U of
Birmingham, UK)
The course will cover the system requirements imposed by high-level
cognitive tasks such as commonsense reasoning, natural language discourse
understanding, and scene understanding, and will consider possibilities for
meeting those requirements in connectionist models. The course will present
the considerable difficulties involved in doing so, and will outline a
number of connectionist models and approaches that have been developed in
the direction of meeting the requirements. It will also address some types
of high-level task that have largely been ignored in discussions between
connectionist and non-connectionists, such as reasoning about other agents'
mental states. John Barnden in Professor in Artificial Intelligence and the
author of many books and papers on beliefs and intentions, connectionist
systems for reasoning, including analogy/case-based reasoning, etc.

"Varieties of Relatedness between Science and its Research Objects:
A Psychological Analysis"

Az eloadas idopontja: aprilis 28, kedd, 18 ora
helye: Budapest, Rakoczi u. 5. II. em. 229. terem
Abstract:
Every scientific investigation is based on a particular epistemological
stance (mindset) determining the kind of relationship between the
researcher and his or her object. It is argued that the acquisition and
taking up of a particular epistemological stance towards an object does
not represent a pure rational choice, rather affective processes do play
an important role. Normally, the affective part of an epistemological
stance is not conscious. To make it conscious active self-reflection of
the scientist is necessary.
Via the demonstration of two dominating scientific world views, the
positivistic-mechanistic-reductionistic on the one hand, the
organismic-systemic one on the other hand, an attempt is going on to be
made to work out the underlying implicit affective parts. Especially, it
will be shown that both the ability of an individual (scientist) to
create boundaries towards the world and the ability to transcend
these boundaries, thereby coping with appearing anxieties, are essential.

Robot Learning. EWLR envisages to be an interdisciplinary workshop
and aims to stimulate an exchange of ideas across the different fields.
EWLR has good foundations to achieve this ambitious goal. The European
Machine Learning and Robotics community has already organised a series of
six successful workshops (Vienna (1993), Torino (1994), Heraklion (1995),
Karlsruhe (1995), Bari (1996), Brighton (1997)) incorporating researchers
from various fields over the years.
Scope
-----
Topics of interest include (but are not restricted to):
* Learning and Adaptation in robot control
* Reinforcement learning
* Robot implementations of human motor learning mechanisms
* Evolutionary learning in robots
* Connectionist approaches to robot learning
* Machine learning techniques applied to robot problems
* Learning from interaction with humans
* Learning by observation, imitation, and cooperation
* Learning in multi-robot systems
* Industrial applications of robot learning
* Hardware issues in learning robots including Evolware
* Robot-Learning and cognition
The EWLRs focus on - but are *not* restricted to - European research.
