Toward an Idiomatic Framework for Cognitive Robotics

Inspired by the "Cognitive Hour-glass" model presented in https://doi.org/10.1515/jagi-2016-0001, we propose a new framework for developing cognitive architectures aimed at cognitive robotics. The purpose of the proposed framework is foremost to ease the development of cognitive architectures by encouraging and mitigating cooperation and re-use of existing results. This is done by proposing a framework dividing the development of cognitive architectures into a series of layers that can be considered partly in isolation, and some of which directly relate to other research fields. Finally, we give introductions to and review some topics essential to the proposed framework.

A Probabilistic Programming Idiom for Active Knowledge Search

In this paper, we derive and implement a probabilistic programming idiom for the problem of acquiring new knowledge about an environment. The idiom is implemented utilizing a modern probabilistic programming language. We demonstrate the utility of this idiom by implementing an algorithm for the specific problem of active mapping and robot exploration. Finally, we evaluate the functionality of the implementation through an extensive simulation study utilizing the HouseExpo dataset.
