Society Functions Best with an Intermediate Level of Creativity
Liane Gabora,Hadi Firouzi +1 more
TL;DR: An agent-based model of cultural evolution is used to investigate how society is affected by different levels of individual creativity and suggests that excess creativity at the individual level can be detrimental at the level of the society.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Real-time monocular vision-based object tracking with object distance and motion estimation
Hadi Firouzi,Homayoun Najjaran +1 more
TL;DR: This paper presents a real-time vision-based object tracking system consisting of a camera on a 2-DOF manipulator which, for example, can be a PT camera, and can achieve better tracking accuracies and efficiencies than the traditional methods.
Journal Article
A computational model of two cognitive transitions underlying cultural evolution
TL;DR: Both mean fitness and diversity of actions across the society increased with chaining, and even more so with CF, as hypothesized, which supports its hypothesized role in generating and refining ideas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interactive Learning in Continuous Multimodal Space: A Bayesian Approach to Action-Based Soft Partitioning and Learning
Hadi Firouzi,Majid Nili Ahmadabadi,Babak Nadjar Araabi,Saeed Amizadeh,Maryam S. Mirian,Roland Siegwart +5 more
TL;DR: A probabilistic framework for interactive learning in continuous and multimodal perceptual spaces is proposed, which results in experience generalization in addition to robustness against uncertainty and noise.
Journal Article
A Probabilistic Reinforcement-Based Approach to Conceptualization
TL;DR: This approach exploits and extends the mirror neuron's role in conceptualization for a reinforcement learning agent in nondeterministic environments and employs the probabilistic formation of the concepts to deal with uncertain and dynamic nature of real problems.
