EUCogIII - 3rd European Network for the Advancement of Artificial Cognitive Systems, Interaction and Robotics

Forschungsförderungsprojekt
The ¿3rd European Network for the Advancement of Artificial Cognitive Systems, Interaction and Robotics¿ (EUCogIII) will continue the work of EUCogII. It will thus organise a network of many hundreds of researchers and continue building the cognitive systems community in Europe, which straddles the divides of traditional academic disciplines. Such a network is the grease for the gears of research; fostering a community with clear aims that can produce efficient, focused research with deep impact. Unlike its predecessor network, EUCogIII will focus on reaching out to show what artificial cognitive systems research has to offer and to increase the impact of the research already done; this outreach will centre on a specific selection of themes that lend themselves particularly well to this purpose. Structurally, we will build bridges from the network to related communities, to extant organisations, networks (e.g. those fostered by EC ¿coordination actions¿ or by ¿technology platforms¿) ¿ especially with a view towards application of artificial cognitive systems research in robotics, but also in other areas of the IT industry that move towards intelligent systems that are autonomous, robust, flexible, self-improving, etc. This orientation towards application also provides added focus to cognitive artificial systems research itself. A network like that of EUCogIII is particularly suitable for providing and supporting education of new researchers (of PhD student level) on the latest developments at the cutting edge of science, since this can really only be done on a larger, European, scale. To support this service to the community, our network will provide a ¿one-stop-shop¿ of online resources. In terms of specific activities in work packages, we provide structures and content in WP 1 Outreach, WP 2 Bridges, WP 3 Education, WP 4 Online Resources and we organise these, in WP 5 academic Coordination and WP 6 Management of finances and events.
