Biologically Inspired Cognitive Architectures

The general focus of this symposium is on the challenge of creating a computational equivalent of the natural mind in its higher cognitive abilities. Specific topics include cognitive architectures inspired by the brain, constraints borrowed from biology, human-like learning and self-sustained cognitive growth, self-regulated learning assistantce, natural language acquisition, emotional and social intelligence, metrics and a roadmap to solving the challenge.

At this time, open submission of papers to the symposium is closed, and a preliminary list of invitees is sent to AAAI. Expected papers or abstracts should be prepared according to the AAAI guidelines and sent via email to Alexei Samsonovich (samsonovich@cox.net or asamsono@gmu.edu) or, if this is not possible, to another Core Organizing Committee member.

The total number of pages allocated for us in AAAI Technical Reports is 200 including the front matter, therefore, we ask you to try to keep the length of your submission at the minimum.
