The current status of the simulation theory of cognition
G Hesslow - Brain research, 2012 - Elsevier
It is proposed that thinking is simulated interaction with the environment. Three assumptions
underlie this 'simulation'theory of cognitive function. Firstly, behaviour can be simulated in …

A cognitive architecture that combines internal simulation with a global workspace
M Shanahan - Consciousness and cognition, 2006 - Elsevier
This paper proposes a brain-inspired cognitive architecture that incorporates
approximations to the concepts of consciousness, imagination, and emotion. To emulate the …

[HTML][HTML] An architecture for ethical robots inspired by the simulation theory of cognition
D Vanderelst, A Winfield - Cognitive Systems Research, 2018 - Elsevier
The expanding ability of robots to take unsupervised decisions renders it imperative that
mechanisms are in place to guarantee the safety of their behaviour. Moreover, intelligent …

Coordinating with the future: the anticipatory nature of representation
G Pezzulo - Minds and Machines, 2008 - Springer
Humans and other animals are able not only to coordinate their actions with their current
sensorimotor state, but also to imagine, plan and act in view of the future, and to realize …

Dealing with large-scale spatio-temporal patterns in imitative interaction between a robot and a human by using the predictive coding framework
This paper aims to investigate how adequate cognitive functions for recognizing, predicting,
and generating a variety of actions can be developed through iterative learning of action …

Learning to perceive the world as probabilistic or deterministic via interaction with others: A neuro-robotics experiment
We suggest that different behavior generation schemes, such as sensory reflex behavior
and intentional proactive behavior, can be developed by a newly proposed dynamic neural …
