From Intelligent Control to Cognitive Control

Abstract

This paper describes our efforts to develop a robot with robust sensorimotor intelligence using a multiagent-based robot control architecture and a biologically inspired intelligent control. Such control is called cognitive control. In this paper we will discuss the application of cognitive control to a humanoid robot. Features of cognitive control addressed include short-term memory for environmental learning, long-term memory for behavior learning and task execution using working memory and TD learning.
