See, feel, act: Hierarchical learning for complex manipulation skills with multisensory fusion

TL;DR: This work proposes a methodology to emulate hierarchical reasoning and multisensory fusion in a robot that learns to play Jenga, a complex game that requires physical interaction to be played effectively.

Ten-month-old infants infer the value of goals from the costs of actions

TL;DR: Infants’ expectations were modeled as Bayesian inferences over utility-theoretic calculations, providing a bridge to recent quantitative accounts of action understanding in older children and adults.

Relational Neural Expectation Maximization: Unsupervised Discovery of Objects and their Interactions

TL;DR: This work presents a novel method that learns to discover objects and model their physical interactions from raw visual images in a purely unsupervised fashion and incorporates prior knowledge about the compositional nature of human perception to factor interactions between object-pairs and learn efficiently.

Deep learning

TL;DR: Deep learning is making major advances in solving problems that have resisted the best attempts of the artificial intelligence community for many years, and will have many more successes in the near future because it requires very little engineering by hand and can easily take advantage of increases in the amount of available computation and data.

Separate visual pathways for perception and action.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the ventral stream of projections from the striate cortex to the inferotemporal cortex plays the major role in the perceptual identification of objects, while the dorsal stream projecting from the stripping to the posterior parietal region mediates the required sensorimotor transformations for visually guided actions directed at such objects.

Building machines that learn and think like people.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of recent progress in cognitive science suggests that truly human-like learning and thinking machines will have to reach beyond current engineering trends in both what they learn and how they learn it.
