MOTIVATION

------------------


The research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been based, from a
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 of 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 2019 is the 7th appointment of the workshop series AIC (
http://dblp.uni-trier.de/db/conf/aic/index), started in 2013 and 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.


*SPECIAL-TRACK*: AIC 2019 particularly welcome papers related to the
problems concerning the EMBODIMENT, and its role in the study of
“intelligence” and “autonomy”, in cognitively-inspired systems (natural and
artificial).

As for the previous editions, the AIC 2019 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. 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.
