Data-driven machine learning models have achieved remarkable performance and demonstrated capabilities surpassing humans in many applications. Yet, their inability to exploit domain knowledge leads to serious performance limitations in practical applications. In particular, deep learning systems are exposed to adversarial attacks, which can trick them into making glaringly incorrect decisions. Moreover, complex data-driven models typically lack interpretability or explainability, i.e., their decisions cannot be understood by human subjects. Furthermore, models are usually trained on standard datasets with a closed-world assumption. Hence, they struggle to generalize to unseen cases during inference in practical open-world environments, thus, raising the zero- or few-shot generalization problem. Although many conventional solutions exist, explicit domain knowledge, brain-inspired neural networks and cognitive architectures offer powerful new dimensions towards alleviating these problems. Prior knowledge is represented in appropriate forms like mathematical relations, logic rules, knowledge graphs, and large language models (LLMs). and incorporated in deep learning frameworks to improve performance. Brain-inspired cognition methods use computational models that mimic the human brain to enhance intelligent behavior in artificial agents and autonomous robots. Ultimately, these models achieve better explainability, higher adversarial robustness and data-efficient learning, and can, in turn, provide insights for cognitive science and neuroscience—that is, to deepen human understanding on how the brain works in general, and how it handles these problems.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":55242,"journal":{"name":"Cognitive Systems Research","volume":"84 ","pages":"Article 101188"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138531994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We focus on this differentiation between relationship-specific and relationship-independent adaptation in social interactions. We analysed computationally how an interplay of adaptive relation-specific and relation-independent mechanisms occurs within the causal pathways for social interaction. As part of this, we cover also the context-sensitive control of these types of adaptation (adaptive speeds and strengths of adaptation), which is sometimes termed higher-order adaptation or metaplasticity. The model was evaluated by a number of explored runs where within a group of four agents each agent randomly has episodes of interaction with one of the three other agents. The outcomes of the analysis of the (stochastic) simulation results show a strong dependence of adaptation on the extent of social interaction: more social interaction leads to more adaptation of the interaction behaviour.

We claim that a mode of experience that involves intense attention and what superficially seems like mind wandering is possible. We propose to grasp this different mode of experience with a new concept: “mind surfing”. We suggest that a conjoined consideration of attention’s intensive and selective capacities can partially explain how one can be both focused and freely “surfing” on a “musical wave” at the same time.
