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.read more

Detecting Contingency for HRI in Open-World Environments
TL;DR: The utility of the real-time contingency detection in a field study of a survey-administering robot in a noisy open-world environment with naïve users is demonstrated, showing that the robot can decrease the number of requests it makes while more efficiently collecting survey responses.

Interaction Histories and Short Term Memory: Enactive Development of Turn-taking Behaviors in a Childlike Humanoid Robot
TL;DR: In this article, an enactive architecture is described that allows a humanoid robot to learn to compose simple actions into turn-taking behaviors while playing interaction games with a human partner, where the robot's action choices are reinforced by social feedback from the human in the form of visual attention and measures of behavioral synchronization.

Modeling Early Vocal Development Through Infant–Caregiver Interaction: A Review
TL;DR: This paper reviews studies addressing this topic based on explicit interaction mechanisms using computer simulations and/or real vocal robots and analysis of the early development of an infant's speech perception and articulation based on observational studies in developmental psychology and a few neuroscientific imaging studies.
Goal Babbling: a New Concept for Early Sensorimotor Exploration
Matthias Rolf,Jochen J. Steil +1 more
TL;DR: This work investigates the learning of reaching skills as an exemplary coordination skill to find motor commands that move the hand, or the robot’s end-effector towards some desired position in space.

Motivation as a tool for designing lifelong learning robots
TL;DR: This paper provides a formalization of motivation from an engineering perspective that allows for the structured design of purposeful robots based on a definition of the concepts of robot needs and drives, which are related through experience to the appropriate goals in specific domains.

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
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.
