Analysing psychological data by evolving computational models
Lane, Peter; Gobet, Fernand; Addis, Mark; Sozou, Peter (Springer Nature, 2016) -
The art of balance: Problem-solving vs pattern-recognition
Lloyd-Kelly, Martyn; Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter (Springer Nature, 2015) -
Bounded rationality and learning
Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter (Springer Nature, 2012) -
Chunking mechanisms and learning
Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter (Springer Nature, 2012) -
'Chunks, schemata and retrieval structures: Past and current computational models
Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter; Lloyd-Kelly, Martyn (2015-11-24)A recurring question in psychology and cognitive science concerns the expression of theories that are internally consistent and testable. Natural language is unsatisfactory, as theoretical concepts and mechanisms are not ... -
Computational scientific discovery and cognitive science theories
Addis, Mark; Sozou, Peter; Lane, Peter; Gobet, Fernand (Springer Nature, 2016) -
Evolving Non-Dominated Parameter Sets for Computational Models from Multiple Experiments
Lane, Peter; Gobet, Fernand (2014-04-25)Creating robust, reproducible and optimal computational models is a key challenge for theorists in many sciences. Psychology and cognitive science face particular challenges as large amounts of data are collected and many ... -
Evolving Understandable Cognitive Models
Lane, Peter; Bartlett, Laura; Javed, Noman; Pirrone, Angelo; Gobet, Fernand (Applied Cognitive Science Lab, 2022-07-27)Cognitive models for explaining and predicting human performance in experimental settings are often challenging to develop and verify. We describe a process to automatically generate the programs for cognitive models from ... -
Forming Concepts of Mozart and Homer Using Short-Term and Long-Term Memory: A Computational Model Based on Chunking
Bennett, Dmitry; Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter (2020-08-01)A fundamental issue in cognitive science concerns the mental processes that underlie the formation and retrieval of concepts in the short-term and long-term memory (STM and LTM respectively). This study advances Chunking ... -
Genetic Programming for Developing Simple Cognitive Models
Bartlett, Laura; Pirrone, Angelo; Javed, Noman; Lane, Peter; Gobet, Fernand (Cognitive Science Society, 2023-07-29)Frequently in psychology, simple tasks that are designed to tap a particular feature of cognition are used without considering the other mechanisms that might be at play. For example, the delayed-match-to-sample (DMTS) ... -
Heuristic Search of Heuristics
Pirrone, Angelo; Lane, Peter; Bartlett, Laura; Javed, Noman; Gobet, Fernand (Springer Nature, 2023-11-08)How can we infer the strategies that human participants adopt to carry out a task? One possibility, which we present and discuss here, is to develop a large number of strategies that participants could have adopted, given ... -
Human problem solving: Beyond Newell et al.'s (1958) Elements of a theory of human problem solving
Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter (SAGE Publications, 2015) -
Learning in the CHREST cognitive architecture
Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter (Springer Nature, 2012) -
Piece of mind: Long-term memory structure in ACT-R and CHREST
Lloyd-Kelly, Martyn; Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter (Cognitive Science Society, 2015)Creating a plausible Unified Theory of Cognition (UTC) requires considerable effort from large, potentially distributed, teams. Computational Cognitive Architectures (CCAs) provide researchers with a concrete medium for ... -
A question of balance: The benefits of pattern-recognition when solving problems in a complex domain
Lloyd-Kelly, Martyn; Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter (2015)The dual-process theory of human cognition proposes the existence of two systems for decision-making: a slower, deliberative,problem-solving system and a quicker, reactive, pattern-recognition system. We alter the balance ... -
Simplification of genetic programs: A literature survey
Javed, Noman; Gobet, Fernand; Lane, Peter (2022-04-27)Genetic programming (GP), a widely used Evolutionary Computing technique, suffers from bloat -- the problem of excessive growth in individuals' sizes. As a result, its ability to efficiently explore complex search spaces ... -
Trust in Cognitive Models: Understandability and Computational Reliabilism
Javed, Noman; Pirrone, Angelo; Bartlett, Laura; Lane, Peter; Gobet, Fernand (Swansea University, 2023-04-14)The realm of knowledge production, once considered a solely human endeavour, has transformed with the rising prominence of artificial intelligence. AI not only generates new forms of knowledge but also plays a substantial ... -
What's in a Name? The Multiple Meanings of "Chunk" and "Chunking"
Gobet, Fernand; Lloyd-Kelly, Martyn; Lane, Peter (2016-02-09)The term chunk, denoting a unit, and the related term chunking, denoting a mechanism to construct that unit, are familiar terms within psychology and cognitive science. The Oxford English Dictionary provides several ...
