Understanding Intelligence

TL;DR: Rolf Pfeifer and Christian Scheier provide a systematic introduction to this new way of thinking about intelligence and computers and derive a set of principles and a coherent framework for the study of naturally and artificially intelligent systems, or autonomous agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

The dynamics of embodiment: a field theory of infant perseverative reaching.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the A-not-B error and its previously puzzling contextual variations can be understood by the coupled dynamics of the ordinary processes of goal-directed actions: looking, planning, reaching, and remembering.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gaze bias both reflects and influences preference.

TL;DR: The gaze cascade effect was also present when participants compared abstract, unfamiliar shapes for attractiveness, suggesting that orienting and preference for objects in general are intrinsically linked in a positive feedback loop leading to the conscious choice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of multisensory spatial integration and perception in humans.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that audiovisual integration emerges late in the first year of life and are consistent with neurophysiological findings from multisensory sites in the superior colliculus of infant monkeys showing that mult isensory enhancement of responsiveness is not present at birth but emerges later in life.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sound induces perceptual reorganization of an ambiguous motion display in human infants

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the habituation/test method to determine whether these illusory effects might emerge early in development and found that infants were habituated to the ambiguous visual display together with a sound synchronized with the objects' coincidence and tested with a physically bouncing object accompanied by the sound at the bounce.
