Selected and expanded versions of ACS papers will be published in a
dedicated special issue of the journal Cognitive Systems Research
(Elsevier, Q1 Scimago for Software). Selection for publication in the
journal will involve a second round of review.
Overview
The Annual Conference on Advances in Cognitive Systems will take
place from Monday, June 17, to Wednesday, June 19, 2024 at the
Palermo site of the Italian National Research Council (CNR).
The conference brings together a diverse set of researchers who pursue
the original goals of artificial intelligence. That is, the overarching
theme of the conference is to explain cognition in computational terms
and to reproduce a broad range of intelligent behaviors and human
abilities in computational artifacts.
The conference welcomes many types of research, including demonstrations
of new capabilities, empirical studies of implemented systems, and
formal analyses of complex tasks. The term "cognitive" refers to any
computational artifact that thinks or reasons, whether or not it works
the same way as humans. Topics of interest include:
-
Conceptual Inference and Reasoning
-
Problem Solving, Planning, and Heuristic Search
-
Common Sense and Qualitative Modeling
-
Memory Storage and Retrieval
-
Structural Learning and Knowledge Capture
-
Natural Language Understanding and Generation
-
Discourse and Dialogue Processing
-
Vision, Audition, and High-level Perception
-
Mental Imagery and Iconic Processing
-
Cognitive Models and Architectures
-
Cognitive Robotics and Embodied Cognition
-
High-level Execution and Control
-
Multi-Tasking and Attention
-
Social Cognition and Interaction
-
Cognitive Aspects of Emotion and Personality
-
Metacognition and Meta-level Reasoning
|
We encourage participation from anyone who is interested in computational
approaches to complex cognition, human-level intelligence, and related
topics.
Submissions
We invite researchers to submit papers for presentation at the
conference. The extended deadline for submissions to the
EasyChair site is Friday, April 19, 2024.
Papers should have no more than sixteen (16) single-column pages and
must follow the formatting instructions at
http://www.cogsys.org/instructions/.
Appendixes are not counted in the 16-page limit.
Authors should examine the review form at
http://www.cogsys.org/review-form/
before submission, as referees will expect papers to address the
questions therein.
Authors of papers accepted for oral presentation at the conference
may be invited to publish an expanded version as an article in a
special issue of Cognitive Systems Research.
Schedule, Logistics, and Registration
The Annual Conference on Advances in Cognitive Systems will run from
Monday, June 17, to Wednesday, June 19, 2024 at the Palermo site of
the National Research Council
in Sicily, Italy.
The meeting will include extended technical presentations, leisurely
breaks to encourage discussions, and poster receptions to foster
additional interactions among participants. The schedule for conference
presentations is available
here.
will be available shortly after paper decisions have
been made. Information about registration, transportation, and lodging
will be available soon at the meeting's
logistics page.
Remote Participation:
We strongly encourage participation in person, but the authors of
selected papers will be able to present their talks virtually provided
that at least one author has paid full registration. Poster presenters
must attend in person.
