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

Autonomous learning of multiple skills through intrinsic motivations : a study with computational embodied models
TL;DR: The experimental works presented in this thesis have been carried out and published together with my supervisor Marco Mirolli and with Gianluca Baldassarre, and the insights provided by that work have been used in the research presented in chapter 4.

Automatic behavior pattern classification for social robots
TL;DR: The basic elements and operation of ANPAC are presented, and its applicability through the detection of behavior patterns in the motion of flocks is illustrated.

Intrinsically Motivated Open-Ended Multi-Task Learning Using Transfer Learning to Discover Task Hierarchy
TL;DR: In this paper, a task-oriented representation of complex actions, called procedures, is proposed to learn online task relationships and unbounded sequences of action primitives to control the different observables of the environment.

Artificial Mental Imagery in Cognitive Robots Interaction
TL;DR: This article reviews the recent literature that exploit of the concept of mental imagery as a fundamental cognitive capability to enhance the robot's ability to interact with the physical and social environment and identifies three future interdisciplinary research directions.

An iterative algorithm for forward-parameterized skill discovery
TL;DR: It is shown that forward-parameterized skills can be seen as smooth components of a locally smooth function and, framing the problem as the constrained minimization of a complexity measure, an iterative algorithm to discover them is proposed.

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.
