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

Robot in the mirror: toward an embodied computational model of mirror self-recognition
TL;DR: The core of the technical contribution is learning the appearance representation and visual novelty detection by means of learning the generative model of the face with deep auto-encoders and exploiting the prediction error.

Learn Like Infants: A Strategy for Developmental Learning of Symbolic Skills Using Humanoid Robots
Kun Li,Max Q.-H. Meng +1 more
TL;DR: An incremental learning strategy by imitating the learning process of human infants, described by developmental psychology theory, is developed, which allows the robot to symbolically represent various objects more autonomously, and to recognize reappearing objects for interaction with improving accuracy.

Evolution of robot-to-robot nurturing and nurturability
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the evolution of nurturing between robots using variations of the light-switching experiment, and show that nurturing and nurturability can be evolved in a simple neural controller, and that nurturing is more likely to evolve if a parent has greater capabilities than its offspring.

Developing Robot Emotions through Interaction with Caregivers
Angelica Lim,Hiroshi G. Okuno +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore social constructivist theories of emotion, which suggest that emotional behaviors are developed through experience, rather than innate, and show that emotion clusters developed through robot-directed motherese (“baby talk”) are similar to adult happiness and sadness.

Model-based reinforcement learning for humanoids: A study on forming rewards with the iCub platform
TL;DR: This work shows a developmental framework for RL in robotics and its implementation and testing for the iCub robotic platform in two novel experimental scenarios, and focuses on iCub simulation experiments with comparisons between internal perception-based reward signals and external ones, to compare learning performance of the robot guided by its own perception of action's outcomes.

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 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.
