Description
An introduction to cognitive science, the new discipline emerging from
the interaction of psychology, artificial intelligence, linguistics, philosophy,
neuroscience, and evolutionary biology. The course will range broadly,
examining a variety of approaches to the study of how humans and other
intelligent systems represent, reason, understand, perceive, use language,
learn, and plan purposeful actions. The central assumption is that the
human mind is fundamentally a computational organ and that cognitive processes
can be explicitly modeled.
