Dynamics of Learning: Some Open Questions
Learning agents
- Dynamical systems view of learning as a process whose behavior is predictive model building
- Define and measure agent ìcognitiveî abilities
- Development mathílly analyzable and simulatable models
- What state-space structures are responsible for learning? E.g., Basins = robust memories; bifurcations = adaptation; models = attractor-basin portrait in subspace; Ö
Robot collectives
- Group versus individual function
- Define and measure degree of cooperation
- Agent collective functioning versus communication topologies
