The symposium will be devoted to interdisciplinary discussion of the processes of nonconscious information processing and implicit learning, in humans and in artificial intelligent agents. Best Regards.-AKT)) ============================================================================ Date: Sat, 25 Nov 2000 17:44:42 +0200 From: Felix Goldberg <sgefelix@techst02.technion.ac.il> [--] [Our most sincere apologies if you happen to receive this call for papers more than once.] We are pleased to invite the submission of extended abstracts for the following two-day symposium to be held in York next March as part of AISB'01 - the 2001 Annual Convention of the British Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour. The homepage for the symposium is at: <http://srsc.ulb.ac.be/AISB.html> ********* Motivation ********* This symposium will be devoted to interdisciplinary discussion of the processes of nonconscious information processing and implicit learning, in humans and in artificial intelligent agents. AI systems with implicit learning capabilities and computational models of implicit learning will be presented, reflecting cognitive, connectionist and composite methodologies and paradigms. A major issue examined will be the degree of salience that is to be ascribed to the possession of implicit knowledge and the ability to acquire and employ it through nonconscious mechanisms exhibited by different classes of information-processing agents: humans, artificial agents and animals. The role of nonconscious information processing in many central issues of artificial intelligence and the cognitive sciences will be explored, including but not limited to, representation and inference, problem-solving, perception, natural language understanding, learning and induction, creativity and scientific discovery. Theoretical contributions, computer simulations and reports of empirical studies are solicited from researchers in artificial intelligence, cognitive science, psychology, computer science and philosophy.
