Cognitive Modeler Questionnaire

This questionnaire, targeted at modelers and architecture developers, aims at fleshing out the requirements of and priorities for the CommonReality system from this side. The primary concern is determining at what level of granularity sensing data should be represented. This is an especially tricky question since various architectures adopt different theoretical perspectives and are attempting explanations at different levels.

1. What cognitive architectures are primarily used at your lab?

 

ACT-R SOAR CogNet CLARION EPIC Theo

2. What cognitive architectures do you or your lab actively develop, modify, or contribute to (excluding model development itselt)?

 

ACT-R SOAR CogNet CLARION EPIC Theo

3. What architectures would you or your lab be willing to assist with integrating with Common Reality?

FPS-style games (Quake, Unreal)    
Computer vision  

6. What sensory modalities are of greatest interest to you (either practically or theoretically)?

Haptic/tactile Olfaction Vestibular
Motor control ESP
7. What programming languages, other than cognitive architectures, are predominantly in use at your lab?
