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

by Kurt Van Lehn (Editor)

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.
