In recent works, the DSO Cognitive Architecture’s design is enhanced by incorporating the concept of the Global Workspace Theory(GWT). The theory proposes that consciousness is realised through the competition of massive, specialised, parallelised processes and thus parallelised, unsynchronised cognitive processes become sequential through such bottleneck. Due to the concurrent nature of DSO Cognitive Architecture, coordination of the different parallel processes through this competition mechanism can be difficult and if not handled properly, will create inconsistent results. In this work, we propose a preliminary framework to coordinate the different processes by process composition which borrows concepts from automated planning. Processes, its argument signature and its output are abstracted into higher level type abstractions which can be used to compose with other processes based on matching the output types to argument types. This is known as process composition and it represents a sketch of how different process can coordinate with one another. We combined this with the current design of the DSO Cognitive Architecture and illustrate an example in crowd anomaly detection

Towards Dynamic Process Composition in the DSO Cognitive Architecture

Panel discussion with authors of papers about 'Cognitive Architectures and Agents' at AGI-20 conference. Held live on Underline, 06/24/2020

Panel Session 1: Cognitive Architectures and Agents

Technical Session: Cognitive Architectures and Agents

technical paper

The AGI conference series is the only major conference series devoted wholly and specifically to the creation of AI systems possessing general intelligence at the human level and ultimately beyond. By gathering together active researchers in the field, for presentation of results and discussion of ideas, we accelerate our progress toward our common goal.

Underline hosted the two main days of AGI 2020 on Wednesday June 24th and Thursday June 25th. Both days were **live-streamed** and you can read the full program bellow. All presentations are available for a **asynchronous viewing**. All presenters are grouped into panels. You can also hear guest talks by **Ben Goertzel** (SingularityNET), **Valery Tarasov** (Semenov Institute of Chemical Physics), **Tatiana Shavrina** (Sberbank) and **Joscha Bach** (MIT Media Lab).
