Design for a Brain is online! |
Wednesday, 29 October 2008 |
Good news for cognitive science public access. "Design for a Brain" W.R. Ashby's master piece is available online in Archive.Org. It is never too late to read or re-read this pioneering and still contemporary book.

The 1st International Workshop on Cognition for Technical Systems is taking place from 6-7 October 2008 at Technische Universität München. Jaime Gómez will be presenting
Learning in technical systems: a Sign based approach

Xabier Barandiaran @ ASLab |
Written by Ricardo Sanz
|
Tuesday, 09 September 2008 |
Xabier Barandiaran, from the University of the Basque Country is going to stay with us for some months. The objectives of this period are:
- To advance on the theoretical integration of the cognitive robotic projects associated with the ASLAB group (including the ICEA project that is in focus with the euCognition network)
- To operationalize in terms of dynamical systems and control theory basic cognitive concepts, in particular the notions of agential identity, cognitive/mental life, normativity.
- To analyse in detail an evolutionary robotic simulation model that satisfies a minimally cognitive task, making use of dynamical system theory and information measurements of causality along dynamical processes.
This stay is supported by the euCognition network funded by the European Commission.
