Cognitive architecture is an engineering approach for modeling cognitive systems.
Cognitive systems could be bug, bird, animal or human
But in most cases it is human
It doesn’t model static structure only
It models cognitive behavior also
Cognitive Architectures (CA)

A single set of mechanisms that account for all of cognition (using the term broadly to include perception and motor control). For example,LanguageProblem solvingDreaming.
Some of the things a UTC must explain are:How intelligent organisms respond flexibly to the environmentHow they exhibit goal-directed behavior and choose goals
rationally (and in response to interrupts: see previous point)How they use symbolsHow they learn from experience
Unified Theories of Cognition (UTC)

Cognitive Memory TypesCognitive Architectures
![Page 7: Cognitive Architectures - Research Circle](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062901/58f3249b1a28ab05278b45cd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The roots of the distinction of human memory returns to Atkinson-Shiffrin model proposed in 1968
They assert that human memory has three separate components:- Sensory register, where sensory information enters memory. Short-Term store, also called working memory or short-term
memory, which holds inputs from sensory register and long-term store.
Long-Term store, where information which has been rehearsed in the short-term store is held indefinitely.
Memory Types
![Page 8: Cognitive Architectures - Research Circle](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062901/58f3249b1a28ab05278b45cd/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Each sensor has its own sensory registerDo not process information carried by stimulusDetect and hold information for use by Short-Term memory Information only transferred to short-term memory when
attention is given to it, otherwise decays rapidly and forgotten Iconic Memory:-
Sensory memory associated with visual system. It was experimentally shown that it is separated to short-term
and long-term memory Decays after 0.5 – 1.0 seconds
Echoic Memory Associated with auditory system Holds superficial aspects of sound (e.g. pitch, temp or rhythm) Having duration between 1.5 and 5 seconds
Sensory Registers / Memory
![Page 9: Cognitive Architectures - Research Circle](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062901/58f3249b1a28ab05278b45cd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Attended information is transferred to Short-Term Memory (STM)
Information that enters STM decays and lost as well as sensory memory
However it usually stays longer than sensory memory (18 – 20 seconds)
Information can stay at STM for much longer time through rehearsal
Information in STM doesn’t have to be of the same modality Example, written text enters as visual can be held as auditory and vise
versa
There is limit to the amount of information that can be held in STM to 7 +/- 2 chuncks
Short-Term Store / Memory
![Page 10: Cognitive Architectures - Research Circle](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062901/58f3249b1a28ab05278b45cd/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
It is a process involves repeating information over and over in order to get the information processed and stored in memory
There are two types of rehearsalMaintenance rehearsal
It is useful in maintaining information in STM. However; it is not an effective way of having information processed and transferred into Long-Term Memory
Example, repeating a phone number out loud until put the number onto the phone to make the call.
Elaborative RehearsalThis type of rehearsal if more effective in transfering
information from STM to Long-Term MemoryIt involves thinking about the meaning of the information and
connecting it to other information already stored in memory
Memory Rehearsal

Is the memory stage where information can be stored for long periods of time.
Information can be maintained in Long-Term Memory (LTM) indefinitely
Two types:- Explicit Memory (Declarative) refers to all memories that are
consciously available, includes:- Episodic Memory:-
Refers to memory for specific events in time as well as supporting their formation and retreival
Semantic Memory Refers to memory of factual information such as meaning of word
Autobiographical Memory Refers to knowledge about events and personal experience from an individual’s
own life. Similar to episodic but it is related to individual lifespan
Implicit Memory (Procedural Memory) Refers to the use of objects or movements of the body Such as how to use a pencil, drive a car or ride a bicycle

SoarSoar is a general cognitive
architecture for developing systems that exhibit intelligent behavior
It has been in use since 1983
evolving through many different versions to where it is now Soar, Version 9

ACT - RAdaptive Control of
Thought – Rational (ACT-R)
The ACT theory has origins in the Human Associative Memory (HAM) theory of human memory
A production system was proposed that procedural knowledge was implemented by production rules

CLARION Architecture Action-Centered Subsystem (ACS)
Control actions i.e., to maintain and apply
procedural knowledge Non-Action-Centered Subsystem
(NACS) to maintain general knowledge i.e., declarative knowledge
Motivational Subsystem (MS) to provide underlying motivations
for perception, action, and cognition, in terms of providing impetus and feedback
Meta-Cognitive Subsystem (MCS) to monitor, direct, and modify the
operations of the other subsystems for better performance

LIDA Architecture
Based primarily on Global Workspace TheoryLIDA simplified cognitive cycle constitutes a unit of
sensing, attending and actingLIDA cognitive cycle divided into three phases:-
Understanding phaseAttention / conscious phaseAction selection phase

Cognitive computing aims to develop a coherent, unified, universal mechanism inspired by the mind’s capabilities
it seeks to implement a unified computational theory of the mind
2007, IBM developed C2 mammalian scale near real-time cortical simulator
A notable C2 innovation is the memory efficient representation of synaptic state significantly increasing model scale.
In 2013, IBM introduced the TrueNorth neuromorphic CMOS chip. It consists of 4096 HW coresEach one simulating 256 programmable neuronsEach neuron has 256 programmable synapses

Although there are hybrid cognitive architectures which includes both symbolic and sub-symbolic subsystems however they are separated islands
There are no integration between symbolic and sub-symbolic subsystems that enables the usage of symbolic representations based on sub-symblic platform.
All symbolic representations relies only on Von Neumann architecture
There is no sub-symbolic architecture that allow causality

How to create symbolic cognitive architecture relies on neural-based platform
How to build neural-based hardware platform suitable for cognitive architectures:-Nano scale neuronsVery low power consumptionLow cost of implementationScalable to include massive number of neurons (10^8 neurons
scale)
How to integrate both paradigms into single cognitive architecture that realizes Allen Newell aspects for Unified Theory of Cognition
