Event
List:

  1. Annual Convention: "Communication, Interaction and Social Intelligence" April 1-4, 2008: Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom

Event
#1
Detail:



As the field of Artificial Intelligence [AI] matures, AI systems begin to take their place in human society as our helpers. Thus it becomes essential for AI systems to have sophisticated social abilities, to communicate and interact. Some systems support us in our activities, while others take on tasks on our behalf. For those systems directly supporting human activities, advances in human-computer interaction become crucial. The bottleneck in such systems is often not the ability to find and process information; the bottleneck is often the inability to have natural (human) communication between computer and user. Clearly such AI research can benefit greatly from interaction with other disciplines such as linguistics and psychology. For those systems to which we delegate tasks: they become our electronic counterparts, or agents, and they need to communicate with the delegates of other humans (or organisations) to complete their tasks. Thus research on the social abilities of agents becomes central, and to this end multi-agent systems have had to borrow concepts from human societies. This interdisciplinary work borrows results from areas such as sociology and legal systems. An exciting recent development is the use of AI techniques to support and shed new light on interactions in human social networks, thus supporting effective collaboration in human societies. The research then has come full circle: techniques which were inspired by human abilities, with the original aim of enhancing AI, are now being applied to enhance those human abilities themselves. All of this underscores the importance of communication, interaction and social intelligence in current Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science research.

Topics:

  • Agent-Agent Communication and Interaction
  • Agent societies, organisations and institutions
  • Coalition formation, teamwork and coordination

+44/1223/324661 fax


About:


The Society for the Study of Behavioural Phenotypes [SSBP] was set up in the United Kingdom in 1987 by a small group of doctors, psychologists and research workers who had been investigating behavioural and emotional aspects of biologically determined syndromes associated with intellectual disability (mental retardation). The impetus for this early research had derived in each case from parent groups. Parents and carers usually said that, of all the problems and worries they had about their disabled relative, it was often unusual or problematic behaviour which they least understood and with which they found it most difficult to cope. Relatives also often said that children with the same disorder seemed to behave in a similar way.

The aims of the SSBP are to share information about behavioural phenotypes, to refine the research methodologies used in their investigation, to facilitate and co-ordinate research, and to disseminate information through publications, workshops and symposia. Advances in our understanding of the organic underpinning and molecular genetics of intellectually disabling syndromes are now creating a need for rigorous study of the associated specific behaviours.
