The euCognition Research Roadmap

One of the main goals of the euCognition network is to create a research roadmap that will help identify the requirements of cognitive systems and focus attention on key scientific challenges. See the Roadmap article on the euCognition wiki for more information.

Final Report on Commission Cognitive Systems Workshops

Now available: a 3-page summary report on the series of workshops on Cognitive Systems topics that the DG INFSO Cognition unit organised late last year and early this year, in Luxembourg. More detailed reports on the individual workshops as well as the documentation of presentations given by participants can be found at here.

The conclusions formulated in the attached summary report will most likely be taken up in the first "Cognitive Systems" Work Programme text in Framework Programme 7. That text is currently being drafted.

CoSy Roadmap

In conjunction with the euCognition-funded Symposium on Grand Challenge 5: Architecture of Brain and Mind, 3-4 April 2006, Aaron Sloman. has been working on some ideas being discussed by some members of the CoSy project about how a collaborative roadmap for the future could be developed (as a research topic in its own right), providing agreed objectives, milestones, and ways of identifying tasks, with the aid of a 3-D requirements grid. This is now summarised in sections 2 to 5 of the Introduction to the GC5 symposium (six page document).

This is a draft, likely to be re-written, so comments and criticisms are welcome.
