We invite submissions on all aspects of cognitive modeling of agents and
multi-agent interactions, including, but not limited to:
* Cognitive architectures of individual cognitive agents.
* Cognitive models of multi-agent interactions (e.g., communication,
cooperation, and negotiation, in relation to cognition).
* Cognitive models of multi-agent organizations (e.g., organizational
structure, economies, culture, and other coordination structures and
mechanisms, in relation to cognition).
* Cognitive models of co-learning of multiple cognitive agents.
* Computational models of evolution of cognition and behavior.
* Computational abstractions, languages, and tools for cognitive modeling
of agents and multi-agent interactions.
The discussions at the workshop will focus on the following issues,

* What are the characteristics of the successful cognitive architectures for
modeling individual cognitive agents?
* What are the suitable characteristics of cognitive architectures for
modeling both individual cognitive agents and multi-agent interactions?
* What are the fundamental ways of understanding and modeling multi-agent
interactions? Can they be reduced to individual cognition?
* How can we best characterize and model social structures and organizations
in relation to cognition?
* How important is evolution in shaping individual cognition and collective
behavior? How can we model that aspect?

Technical session on Neural and Cognitive Modeling at IICAI-03.
This session focuses on issues in computational / theoretical neuroscience and cognitive modeling. The ideas presented could be proposals of conceptual framework or concrete models of brain function and dysfunction. Models could be pitched at the level of sub-neuronal, neuronal, population, or at the brain systems level. The processes could be related to language, speech, planning, decision making, reasoning, learning, memory, cognition, emotion, attention, awareness, vision, auditory, other sensory and motor domains, pattern and object recognition, neuromodulation, etc. The data for constraining models could originate from various experimental methods such as EEG, ERP, PET, fMRI, MEG, Electrophysiology, Psychophysics, Behavioral, Ethological, Developmental and Clinical studies. The modeling methods may be mathematical, statistical, neural networks, symbolic artificial intelligence and computer simulations. The above description is indicative of potential topics but not restrictive. For any clarifications, please contact the Session Chair.
Please send an email to Georg Thimm if you encounter any problems, inconsistencies or out-of-date information.
