Here are some links to useful material that is relevant to my course on Artificial Cognitive Systems on my main website. I keep this material here on the wiki to make sure it is current and up-to-date.


Surveys

Educational Resources

Course on Cognitive Architectures This module is part of a course on computation and cognition given by Charles F. Schmidt, Rutgers University. It gives a particularly useful introduction to production system cognitivist cognitive architectures.

Cognitive Systems Outreach This project is a network action funded by euCognition - The European Network for the Advancement of Artificial Cognitive Systems. It is coordinated by Joanna Bryson, University of Bath, UK.

Definitions of Cognition

Definitions of Cognition It has proved difficult to define cognition (and some argue that it isn't worth trying). Here is a list of over 40 definitions which were contributed by members of euCognition - the European Network for the Advancement of Artificial Cognitive Systems - in response to a questionnaire.

For comparison, here is the definition of a cognitive system that is being adopted by the Springer Reference Guide to Computer Vision.

White Papers

Action selection for Intelligent Systems This is a popular white paper contributed by Cyril Brom, Charles University, Prague, and Joanna Bryson, University of Bath, UK, to euCognition - The European Network for the Advancement of Artificial Cognitive Systems.


Tutorials

Tutorial on Embodiment The title of this tutorial doesn't do justice to the breadth of its coverage of cognition and cognitive systems. It actually provides a wide-ranging summary of the main aspects of this discipline, from cognitivist AI right through to embodied emergent cognition. It's edited by Matej Hoffmann, Dorit Assaf, and Rolf Pfeifer at the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory Department of Informatics, University of Zurich,


Directories

EUCog Wiki entry for Cognitive Architectures This is a modifiable directory of European research in Artificial Cognitive Systems, Interaction and Robotics.

Degrees in Cognitive Systems

The following is a sample of the Master-level degrees that are available in cognitive systems.

Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Spain Interdisciplinary Master in Cognitive Systems and Interactive Media (60 ECTS)

Technical University of Munich Robotics, Cognition, and Intelligence


University of Warwick M.Sc. in Cognitive Systems
