Some of the things we would like to discuss: |
|
|
● |
Continuous-time recurrent neural networks (CTRNNs) as dynamical system models (other models?) |
|
● |
Coupling of CTRNNs |
|
● |
Modularity and design |
|
● |
Learning as dynamics occurring at slower time-scales (as opposed to changes in the connection weights or any other parameter of equation of change of state of the nodes in the network) |
|
● |
Self-organization, selection and neutrality in the evolution of dynamical systems |
|
● |
Evolution of intrinsic (e.g. evolvable hardware) and extrinsic morphologies |
|
● |
Embodied cognition (the exploitation by a cognitive agent, qua cognitive, of all its physical properties) |
|
● |
Cognition as a thoroughly distributed process within the agent and between agent and environment |
|
● |
Is there a spectrum of representational-hungry cognitive phenomena - which is it? what cognitive task are needed to explore next? |
|
● |
Constrasts between behavioural and mechanistic levels of dynamical systems descriptions |
|
● |
State of the art in evolutionary synthesis of dynamical systems which exhibit adaptive behaviour |
| ● | ...? |
| ● | More suggestions welcomed! (some have already been added) |
