The CogSys II conference was organised to share the progress
that is being made in the research community around the sponsored projects
within the area of Cognitive Systems (area FP6-2003-IST-2, call
IST-2002-2.3.2.4).
The abstracts of the oral and poster
presentations as well as PDFs of the conference contributions can be found here.
From the Mission
Statement of the Directorate
E Unit E5 – Cognition: The area of Cognitive Systems aims to develop
“artificial cognitive systems than can interpret information (images, text,
speech, video footage) and other forms of sensor data, and act purposefully
and autonomously towards achieving goals. These systems should learn and
develop through individual or social interaction with their environment.
The work should provide an enabling technology that applies across domains
such as natural language understanding, image recognition, automated
reasoning and decision support, robotics and automation, sensing and
process control, and complex real-world systems. The work should
furthermore borrow insights from the bio-sciences, and yield innovative
insights about perception, understanding, interaction, learning and
knowledge representation”.
CogSys II was financially supported by
the Nijmegen Institute for Cognition and Information (NICI) and the Faculty
of Social Sciences of the Radboud University Nijmegen. The meeting was
organised and co-sponsored by the IST project Joint Action Science
and Technology (JAST • FP6-003747).
