AISC 2018 – Pavia, Italy

15th Conference of the Italian Association for Cognitive Science

*D*ecember 17-19, 2018, IUSS Pavia.

*The New Era of Artificial Intelligence: A Cognitive Perspective*


*Big data, machine learning, AI algorithms are intensely disputed and
acclaimed nowadays.*

*Currently we are assisting to growing investments in computational models
simulating neurocognitive functions (e.g. the Human Brain Project) and this
trend will probably be enhanced in the near future (Communication
Artificial Intelligence for Europe, 25 April 2018) especially in the fields
of Machine Learning and Robotics. *


*What is the role of Cognitive Science in this debate?*


*The AISC Conference 2018 will focus on this topic, (re)discussing the new
idea of AI (as compared to the one historically proposed by McCarthy,
Minsky, Brooks, Lenat, Rumelhart and McClelland among others) bringing into
discussion ideas from Neurocognition, Epistemology and formal Linguistics
among other relevant Cognitive Science sub-fields.*



Topics of interests include, but are not limited to:


embodied and grounded cognition

4E cognition

cognitive psychology

social cognition

cognitive robotics

cognitive architecture

cognitive modeling

artificial intelligence and cognition

cognitive neurosciences

language and cognition

language representation and comprehension

cognition and simulation

cognitive linguistics

philosophy of cognitive science

philosophy of neuroscience

history of cognitive science

philosophy of mind and cognition

cognitive ontology

epistemology and cognitive science



*Confirmed invited speakers*


*Maria Chiara Carrozza* (Scuola superiore Sant’Anna Pisa)

*Marcello Frixione *(University of Genoa)

We invite submissions for paper presentations and symposia.


*Papers*: Paper presentations will be allowed 30 minutes including
discussion. Abstracts may be written in English or Italian, and they should
not exceed 500 words including references. Authors should submit through
EasyChair at the following link:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aisc20180


The Conference Committee reserves the right to offer poster presentations
instead of full paper presentations for some of the abstracts, in light of
the reviews’ results.


We are planning to publish a selection of the papers accepted and presented
in an *edited volume *or in a *special issue of a journal*.


*Symposia*: Symposium proposals should be submitted via Easychair and
should be no longer than 1500 words (including references). Every proposal
should include: title, names, affiliations and contact details of the
organizers and speakers, and a short explanation of the symposium aim.
