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.
