Séminaire CHM du Jeudi 19 Décembre 2002

Abstract
For many years, the SNePS Research Group has been developing a computational model of a natural language competent cognitive agent/robot, and experimenting with various implementations. This has involved experimental research in Knowledge Representation, Computer Reasoning, Natural Language Understanding, Natural Language Generation, and rational acting. Some of the distinguishing characteristics of our approach are: we view the knowledge base as containing first-person beliefs of the agent, rather than third-person beliefs about the agent; our reasoning/acting system is designed to support on-line reasoning while the agent interacts in NL, and while it senses and acts in the environment; we have been concerned with which of the agent's beliefs derive from reasoning, which from sensing, and which from first-person privileged information about its own body. In this talk, I will give an overview of our approach to cognitive robotics.
