Artificial Intelligence and Cognition
Artificial Intelligence and Cognition is a research area aiming to achieve four related objectives:
- Improve our understanding about human cognition (individual or team) through computational cognitive models.
- Innovate technologies to support distributed decision making of human teams inspired by cognitive theories and economic principles.
- Study the impacts of cognitive aids on human-agent teams through human-in-the-loop experiments.
- Automate the extraction of patterns and knowledge from large-scale temporal data, textual information, images, and social networks.
Representative topics of research include team cognition, cognitive modeling for studying stress, high-level cognitive modeling language, decision support tools for risk mitigation, intelligent agents inspired by naturalistic decision making, human-agent trust, market-based agents for resource allocation, agent-based modeling, text mining, temporal data mining, and Web data mining.
