Objectives
& Work Plan:
The general aim
of this project is to integrate language and cognitive
capabilities in cognitive systems through the combination of
grounded adaptive agents and MFT techniques. In the first year,
this will be achieved through the following objectives:
-
To scale up the MFT algorithm
presented at KIMAS 2005 (Fontanari
J.(2005) Meaning Creation and Modeling Field Theory)
and to test its capacity to withstand the augmentation.
-
To adapt the MFT algorithm for
the acquisition of linguistics, cognitive and sensorimotor
abilities in adaptive agents
-
To design and implement a
computer simulator for linguistic agents with MFT controller
-
To execute a series of
simulation experiments on the integration of language and
cognitive abilities in collaborative tasks (e.g. object
manipulation and navigation tasks)
-
To do further simulation aiming
at he scale up of the agents lexicon in terms of higher
number of lexical entries and types of syntactic categories.
Work Plan:
The work plan
will be based on a series of simulation experiments on
language-cognition interaction with grounded adaptive agents.
