In an attempt to return to the original goals of artificial intelligence and cognitive science, this special track invites papers in human-level intelligence, human-like intelligence, human-centered intelligence, and related areas that aim to explain intelligence in computational terms and reproduce a range of human cognitive abilities in computational artifacts. We are especially interested in papers on integrated artificial cognitive systems. Possible topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

Conceptual inference and reasoning
Knowledge structures
Cognitive architectures
Memory storage and retrieval
Learning and knowledge acquisition
Perception, imagery and motor control
Language understanding and dialogue
Problem solving and decision making
Motivation and emotion
Meta-cognition
Creativity
Social cognition and interaction
Ethical and Moral Reasoning.
Methods of integration

Papers will be reviewed by qualified reviewers drawn from a special track committee, with general expertise in artificial cognitive systems and specific expertise in at least one of the above areas. We encourage authors to clearly explain how their paper fits into the Special Track on Cognitive Systems and how it answers the call for papers. In cases where a submitted paper is not deemed relevant, it may be considered for review for another special track or the general technical papers track at the discretion of the tracks and conference cochairs.
