چکیده
In this paper we claim that meaningful representations can be learned by programs, although today they are almost always designed by skilled engineers. We discuss several kinds of meaning that representations might have, and focus on a functional notion of meaning as appropriate for programs to learn. Speci cally, a representation is meaningful if it incorporates an indicator of external conditions and if the indicator relation informs action. We survey methods for inducing kinds of representations we call structural abstractions. Prototypes of sensory time series are one kind of structural abstraction, and though they are not denoting or compositional, they do support planning. Deictic representations of objects and prototype representations of words enable a program to learn the denotational meanings of words. Finally, we discuss two algorithms designed to nd the macroscopic structure of episodes in a domain-independent way.

Physical and Affective Interaction between Human and Mental Commit Robot
Recent advances in robotics have been applied to automation in industrial manufacturing, with the primary purpose of optimizing practical systems in terms of such objective measures as accuracy, speed, and cost. This paper introduces research on mental commit robot that seeks a different direction that is not so rigidly dependent on such objective measures. The main goal of this research is to ...
متن کاملDevelopment of imitation in a humanoid robot
The Problem: It is believed that one of the distinguishing skills of homo sapiens sapiens is that of learning from imitation while it is less clear whether other primates are capable of true imitation. Imitation encompasses a set of different competences such as recognizing other people’s actions, recognizing the goal of a particular action and the objects and/or subjects involved. This project...
