Bridging Dichotomies in Cognitive Architectures for Virtual Humans
Paul S. Rosenbloom · National Conference on Artificial Intelligence · 2011
Desiderata for cognitive architectures that are to support the extent of human-level intelligence required in virtual humans imply the need to bridge a range of dichotomies faced by such architectures. The focus here is first on two general approaches to building such bridges ‐ addition and reduction ‐ and then on a pair of general tools ‐ graphical models and piecewise continuous functions ‐ that exploit the second approach towards developing such an architecture. Evaluation is in terms of the architecture’s demonstrated ability and future potential for bridging the dichotomies.
