  1. I would appreciate recommendations for a preprint server to submit preprints in computational intelligence / computational cognitive science.

    I know about the following preprint servers and would appreciate opinions about their relative merits for that topic area, and links to any other relevant preprint servers.

    * techrxiv.org/

    * preprints.org/

    * arxiv.org/
    - The available fine-grained categories in Computer Science *might* not cover my topics (depending on how strictly the categories are interpreted).
    - The submission formats *might* be incompatible with my writing workflow.

    * osf.io/preprints/discover
    - OSF Preprints is a network of community-run OSF-hosted preprint servers. The only vaguely relevant community server is PssyArXiv, and it isn't clear that my topics of interest are on-scope for PsyArXiv.

    * zenodo.org/
    - Appears to have no constraints on format or topic (which is probably positive for me).
    - Is not indexed by Google Scholar. (I have views about Google. However, not being indexed by Google means that preprints on Zenodo are effectively invisible to many researchers.)

  6. The next VSAonline webinar is at 17:00 UTC (not the usual time), Monday 27 January.

    Zoom: ltu-se.zoom.us/j/65564790287

    WEB: bit.ly/vsaonline

    Speaker: Anthony Thomas from UC Davis, USA

    Title: ”Sketching a Picture of Vector Symbolic Architectures”

    Abstract : Sketching algorithms are a broad area of research in theoretical computer science and numerical analysis that aim to distil data into a simple summary, called a "sketch," that retains some essential notion of structure while being much more efficient to store, query, and transmit.

    Vector-symbolic architectures (VSAs) are an approach to computing on data represented using random vectors, and provide an elegant conceptual framework for realizing a wide variety of data structures and algorithms in a way that lends itself to implementation in highly-parallel and energy-efficient computer hardware.

    Sketching algorithms and VSA have a substantial degree of consonance in their methods, motivations, and applications. In this tutorial style talk, I will discuss some of the connections between these two fields, focusing, in particular, on the connections between VSA and tensor-sketches, a family of sketching algorithms concerned with the setting in which the data being sketched can be decomposed into Kronecker (tensor) products between more primitive objects. This is exactly the situation of interest in VSA and the two fields have arrived at strikingly similar solutions to this problem.

  16. CW: Help requested - Open Access journals for Artificial Intelligence / Computational Cognitive Science

    I would greatly appreciate any recommendations for #OpenAccess #ScholComm journals to publish some research:

    Subject: Artificial Intelligence (very broadly interpreted)

    Acceptance criteria: Peer reviewed

    Publication model: Diamond/Platinum open access - free to read and free to publish

    Licensing: Something unrestrictive, like CC-BY and author retains all rights

  17. Help from older folk please: In the earlier days of artificial intelligence (GOFAI) - say, the 1980s - there was an aphorism to the effect that once you had found the right data representation for your problem you had pretty much solved your problem (i.e. choice of representation dominates choice of algorithm).

    I would greatly appreciate (some approximation to) the actual text of the aphorism and, if possible, some citation to its origin.

    Thanks!

    Readers of "How is perception tractable?" (philpapers.org/archive/BROHIP-) might also be interested in "High-level perception, representation, and analogy: A critique of artificial intelligence methodology" (tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108), which doesn't touch on computational tractability but does argue that perception is necessarily *not* encapsulated from cognition.

    The BBS target article on the Language of Thought Hypothesis states:

    "We outline six core properties of
    LoTs: (i) discrete constituents; (ii) role-filler independence; (iii) predicate-argument
    structure; (iv) logical operators; (v) inferential promiscuity; and (vi) abstract content."

    It's interesting to think about the extent to which those properties are directly enabled by neural representations using Vector Symbolic Architectures / Hyperdimensional Computing. It hadn't occurred to me to draw a line between LoT and VSA/HDC.

  21. H3: In the context of #cognitiveAI, #computationalcognitivescience, I have proposed the "Minimal Cognitive Grid" a pragmatic method to quantitatively and qualitatively rank the different degrees of biological and #cognitiveplausibility of artificial systems in order to project and predict their explanatory power with respect to the natural systems taken as a source of inspiration.

    The idea was introduced in the book "Cognitive Design for Artificial Minds":
