MOTIVATION 
--------- 

The research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been based, from an
historical standpoint, on a strong collaboration with Cognitive Science.
This collaboration, has produced - along the years - mutual benefits. In
AI this partnership has driven to the realization of intelligent systems
based on plausible models of human cognition. 
In turn, in cognitive science, this partnership allowed the development
of cognitive models and architectures providing greater understanding on
human thinking. 

In recent years, after a period of partial fragmentation of the research
directions, 
the area of cognitively inspired artificial systems is progressively
attracting a renewed attention both from academia and industry and the
awareness about the need for additional research in this
interdisciplinary field is gaining widespread acceptance. 

AIC 2015 is the third appointment of the workshop series AIC, started in
2013 ( http://www.di.unito.it/~lieto/AIC2013/index.html [4]), stemming
from the need of creating an international scientific forum for the
discussion and the presentation of the theoretical and applied research
developments in the field of cognitively inspired Artificial
Intelligence. 

As for the previous editions, the AIC 2015 workshop aims at putting
together researchers coming from different domains (e.g., artificial
intelligence, cognitive science, computer science, engineering,
philosophy, social sciences, etc.) working on the interdisciplinary
field of cognitively inspired artificial systems. 

Both papers spotlighting theoretical issues and experimental research in
the field are welcome. The submission of papers regarding the
presentation of realized or under-development cognitively inspired
systems and/or applications is encouraged. 

We also particularly welcome papers raising challenging questions,
innovative ideas and out of the box thinking and which, as a
consequence, can help to promote interesting discussions at the
workshop. 

Participation of younger researchers and the submission of research 
papers also at early stage of work is encouraged as well. 

TOPICS 
------ 

Topics of interest include but are not limited to: 

- Knowledge Representation and Cognition (e.g. Neural Networks models, 
Ontologies and representation of common sense etc.) 
- Cognitive Architectures (e.g. SOAR, ACT-R) and Cognitive modelling 
for Artificial Systems 
- B.I.C.A. (Biologically Inspired Cognitive Architectures) and systems 
- Cognitive Robotics 
- Evaluation of cognitively driven AI systems compared with other AI 
approaches 
- Cognition and Semantic Web 
- Methodological open questions on AI and Cognition 
- Automated reasoning: deductive, probabilistic, diagnostic, 
causal and analogical inference 
- Historical and theoretical relation among Cognitive Science and 
Artificial Intelligence 
- Knowledge discovery and acquisition 
- Modelling of human learning and knowledge acquisition in complex
domains 
- Computational Linguistics, Natural Language Processing & Understanding

- Logic and Reasoning
