What mechanisms are needed in a cognitive system, such as an animal or a robot, and how do these mechanisms interact with each other?
This book presents a study of these questions within the field of behavior-based systems and artificial neural networks. It brings together ideas from behavior-based robotics, control theory and machine learning and combines them with models from ethology, psychology and neurobiology in an attempt to synthesize a complete artificial nervous system for a simulated artificial creature.
The proposed model investigates classical and instrumental conditioning, as well as more cognitive processes, such as category learning, exploratory behavior and cognitive map- ping. The role of expectations in learning is emphasized to map out the way for more cognitive abilities, such as plan- ning and problem solving.
The central role of motivation and emotion within a cogni- tive theory is discussed, and it is shown that a central motivational system is necessary to coordinate behavior.
