Cognitive Developmental Robotics: A Survey

TLDR
Cognitive developmental robotics aims to provide new understanding of how human's higher cognitive functions develop by means of a synthetic approach that developmentally constructs cognitive functions through interactions with the environment, including other agents.
Abstract
Cognitive developmental robotics (CDR) aims to provide new understanding of how human's higher cognitive functions develop by means of a synthetic approach that developmentally constructs cognitive functions. The core idea of CDR is ldquophysical embodimentrdquo that enables information structuring through interactions with the environment, including other agents. The idea is shaped based on the hypothesized development model of human cognitive functions from body representation to social behavior. Along with the model, studies of CDR and related works are introduced, and discussion on the model and future issues are argued.

Neurorobotics-A Thriving Community and a Promising Pathway Toward Intelligent Cognitive Robots.

TL;DR: My perspective on this field is provided, some of the landmark events are pointed out, and the future potential of Neurorobots is discussed.

Robot initiative in a team learning task increases the rhythm of interaction but not the perceived engagement.

TL;DR: Experiments show that the pace of interaction is higher and the reaction to attention cues faster when the robot is the initiator of the learning task, and subjective and third-person evaluations of the interaction task suggest that the attentive mechanism implemented in the humanoid robot iCub is able to arouse engagement and make the robot's behavior readable.

Affordance learning from range data for multi-step planning.

TL;DR: The experiments have shown that the robot is able to learn the physical affordances of objects from 3D range images and use them to build symbols and relations that are used for making multi-step plans to achieve a given goal.

From spontaneous motor activity to coordinated behaviour: a developmental model

TL;DR: Results show that reflex circuits can be self-organized from SMA, and that, once these circuits are in place, they can be modulated to achieve coordinated behaviour, and the model can naturally adapt to different morphological changes and perform behavioural transitions.

Embodiment guides motor and spinal circuit development in vertebrate embryo and fetus

TL;DR: It is found that development of the embodiment causes changes in movements and increases their complexity, corresponding to the same manner as mammalian motor development.

A Neural Substrate of Prediction and Reward

TL;DR: Findings in this work indicate that dopaminergic neurons in the primate whose fluctuating output apparently signals changes or errors in the predictions of future salient and rewarding events can be understood through quantitative theories of adaptive optimizing control.

The Attention System of the Human Brain

TL;DR: Illustration de trois fonctions principales qui sont predominantes dans l'etude de l'intervention de l'sattention dans les processus cognitifs: 1) orientation vers des evenements sensoriels; 2) detection des signaux par processus focal; 3) maintenir la vigilance en etat d'alerte

The construction of reality in the child

Jean Piaget
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors make a distinction between simple temporal displacements in extension due to the repetition of primitive processes on the occasion of new problems analogous to old ones, and the temporal displacement in comprehension due to a transition from one plane of activity to another; that is, from the plane of action to that of representation.

Statistical Learning by 8-Month-Old Infants

TL;DR: The present study shows that a fundamental task of language acquisition, segmentation of words from fluent speech, can be accomplished by 8-month-old infants based solely on the statistical relationships between neighboring speech sounds.

Rhythms of the brain

TL;DR: The brain's default state: self-organized oscillations in rest and sleep, and perturbation of the default patterns by experience.
