Symmetry structure in discrete models of biochemical systems : natural subsystems and the weak control hierarchy in a new model of computation driven by interactions
(2015-07-28)
Interaction Computing (IC) is inspired by the observation that cell metabolic/regulatory systems construct order dynamically, through constrained interactions between their components and based on a wide range of possible ...
Symmetries of Automata
(2015-03-24)
For a given reachable automaton A, we prove that the (state-)endomorphism monoid End(A) divides its characteristic monoid M(A). Hence so does its (state-)automorphism group Aut(A), and, for finite A, Aut(A) is a homomorphic ...
Computational understanding and manipulation of symmetries
(Springer Nature, 2015-01)
For natural and artificial systems with some symmetry structure, computational understanding and manipulation can be achieved without learning by exploiting the algebraic structure. This algebraic coordinatization is based ...
The ITALK project : A developmental robotics approach to the study of individual, social, and linguistic learning
(2014-07-24)
This article presents results from a multidisciplinary research project on the integration and transfer of language knowledge into robots as an empirical paradigm for the study of language development in both humans and ...
SgpDec : Cascade (de)compositions of finite transformation semigroups and permutation groups
(Springer Nature, 2014)
We describe how the SgpDec computer algebra package can be used for composing and decomposing permutation groups and transformation semigroups hierarchically by directly constructing substructures of wreath products, the ...
General self-motivation and strategy identification : Case studies based on Sokoban and Pac-Man
(2013-12-18)
In this paper, we use empowerment, a recently introduced biologically inspired measure, to allow an AI player to assign utility values to potential future states within a previously unencountered game without requiring ...
Effects of different kinds of robot feedback
(Springer Nature, 2013-12-01)
In this paper, we investigate to what extent tutors' behavior is influenced by different kinds of robot feedback. In particular, we study the effects of online robot feedback in which the robot responds either contingently ...
Exploring the concept of interaction computing through the discrete algebraic analysis of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction
(2013-05)
Interaction computing (IC) aims to map the properties of integrable low-dimensional non-linear dynamical systems to the discrete domain of finite-state automata in an attempt to reproduce in software the self-organizing ...
Interaction and Experience in Enactive Intelligence and Humanoid Robotics
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013)
We overview how sensorimotor experience can be operationalized for interaction scenarios in which humanoid robots acquire skills and linguistic behaviours via enacting a “form-of-life”’ in interaction games (following ...
Temporal emphasis for goal extraction in task demonstration to a humanoid robot by naive users
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013)
Goal extraction in learning by demonstration is a complex problem. A novel approach, inspired by developmental psychology and focused on use in experiments with naive users, is presented in this paper. Participants were ...
