Artificial Intelligence in Action
Social Cognition
Social cognition is concerned with high level of social interactions in which cognitive capacities are used. In such interactions notions of knowledge, belief, emotions and personality becomes of importance. Applications of this work is widely spread in domestic robots, entertainment systems, and training simulators. It also provides a platform for a better understanding of human cognition and complex reasoning system in social context.
There are two projects active from this project, namely:
FIM: Fuzzy Individual Modelling (for Crowd Simulation)
Para-consistent Logics for Emotions Modelling and Emotions-based Reasoning
