Architectures for Intelligence: The 22nd Carnegie Mellon Symposium on Cognition / Edition 1

by Kurt Van Lehn

Overview

This unique volume focuses on computing systems that exhibit intelligent behavior. As such, it discusses research aimed at building a computer that has the same cognitive architecture as the mind — permitting evaluations of it as a model of the mind — and allowing for comparisons between computer performance and experimental data on human performance. It also examines architectures that permit large, complex computations to be performed — and questions whether the computer so structured can handle these difficult tasks intelligently.
