For cognitive agents that decide based on experiences, memory retrieval is a significant issue. In this article a contribution to this field is made by introducing the concept of psychic spreading activation for memory retrieval in an autonomous agent. Using the psychoanalytical foundation of that as a constraint, a variant of spreading activation was created to regard perceptional as well as motivational...
With the advent of artificial general intelligence architectures, comparison between different architectures became more complicated. Small isolated tasks like box stacking, path finding, chess, or collecting objects is sufficient for highly specialized algorithms like the ones used in artificial intelligence. The holistic control systems are designed to cope with rich, dynamic, and complex real world...
To manage the increasing volume of data per time unit, achievements in information processing and artificial intelligence were made. But still the complex processes of human perception and scenario recognition are not fully understood and still far from implementation in technical applications. The contribution of this article to the field of cognitive automation is the concept of prediction for perceptual-...
The complexity of technical systems is constantly increasing. To manage the amount of data several strategies have been followed and a lot of achievements were made especially in artificial intelligence. But still the capabilities of human intelligence are unrivaled. The contribution of this article is an introduction to a decision unit based on psychoanalytical models and a description how the findings...
The novel approach to use meta-psychology — the theoretic foundation of psychoanalysis — as archetype for a decision making framework for autonomous agents was realized in simulations recently. In addition, multiple studies showed the capability of a robot to sense and interact in its environment. This work fills the gap between sensing, environmental interaction and decision making by grounding these...
