• AGIRI 2006 Workshop Keynote Speaker: Dr. Stan Franklin (Dir. Institute for Intelligent Systems, University of Memphis) - A Cognitive Theory of Everything: The LIDA Technology as an Artificial General Intelligence.
  "Implementing and fleshing out a number of psychological and neuroscience theories of cognition, the LIDA conceptual model aims at being a cognitive 'theory of everything.' With modules or processes for perception, working memory, episodic memories, 'consciousness,' procedural memory, action selection, perceptual learning, episodic learning, deliberation, volition, and non-routine problem solving, the LIDA model is ideally suited to provide a working ontology that would allow for the discussion, design, and comparison of AGI systems. The LIDA technology is based on the LIDA cognitive cycle, a sort of 'cognitive atom.' The more elementary cognitive modules play a role in each cognitive cycle. Higher-level processes are performed over multiple cycles. This talk will give a quick overview of the LIDA conceptual model, and its underlying computational technology." May 20, 2006. (more)

• Scientific American Frontiers with Alan Alda: Cars That Think.
  3 segments: Part 1 - Watch the Road. Alan rides in a vehicle that recognizes road signs and hazards – and warns the driver to slow down. Part 2 - Hold the Phone! Alan 'drives' the Ford VIRTTEX simulator that researchers use to investigate how distractions like cell phone calls or drowsiness affect driver safety. Part 3 - Smart Passenger. A virtual smart passenger named Sally listens in to the driver's speech at all times and responds appropriately. January 26, 2005. (more)

• The Secure Wireless Agent Testbed.
  This video presents a high-level overview of the Secure Wireless Agent Testbed, a multi-year project to study intelligent agent technologies in the context of network-centric and mobile ad hoc wireless systems for situation awareness. The project involved over 50 students and resulted in over two dozen live field trials of agent-based C4ISR. The SWAT platform has since been employed on a number of follow-on projects and products for the Department of Defense, Department of Justice and several commercial offerings. July 14, 2008. (more)
