Towards a New Cognitive Hourglass: Uniform Implementation of Cognitive Architecture via Factor Graphs Proceedings Article
In: Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Cognitive Modeling (ICCM 2009), Manchester, UK, 2009.

booktitle = {Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Cognitive Modeling (ICCM 2009)},
address = {Manchester, UK},
abstract = {As cognitive architectures become ever more ambitious in the range of phenomena they are to assist in producing and modeling, there is increasing pressure for diversity in the mechanisms they embody. Yet uniformity remains critical for both elegance and extensibility. Here, the search for uniformity is continued, but shifted downwards in the cognitive hierarchy to the implementation level. Factor graphs are explored as a promising core, with initial steps towards a reimplementation of Soar. The ultimate aim is a uniform implementation level for cognitive architectures affording both heightened elegance and expanded coverage.},

A Graphical Rethinking of the Cognitive Inner Loop Proceedings Article

booktitle = {Proceedings of the The First International Workshop on Graphical Representations for Knowledge Representation and Reasoning},
abstract = {Explorations of graphical representation and rea- soning have yielded intriguing results spanning symbol, probability and signal processing. Here we explore an integrative application of graphs, as a path towards cognitive architectures of increased elegance, functionality, and extensibility. The spe- cific focus is on steps towards a graphical reim- plementation and extension of the cognitive inner loop within the Soar architecture. Alchemy, an im- plementation of Markov logic, is used for initial experiments, yielding insights into what will ulti- mately be required for full graphical implementa- tions of enhanced cognitive inner loops.},

booktitle = {Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Autonomous Agents},
address = {Barcelona, Spain},
abstract = {This paper describes a project to develop autonomous commander agents for synthetic battlespaces. The commander agents plan missions, monitor their execution, and replan when necessary. To reason about the social aspects of group behavior, the commanders take various social stances that enable them to collaborate with friends, exercise or defer to authority, and thwart their foes. The purpose of this paper is to describe these capabilities and how they came to be through a series of lessons learned while developing autonomous agents for this domain.},
