Anybody interested to submit a paper to this very interesting
symposium? Since there were few submissions until now, the deadline
for abstracts has just been extended to Feb. 11, so the probability
of having a paper accepted becomes larger...

AMKLC'05 - Symposium on
Adaptive Models of
Knowledge, Language and
Cognition
The AMKLC'05 symposium focuses on emergence, complexity and self-organization in cognitive and social systems: how knowledge is being created and established within human and computer-mediated networks and the role of language as an adaptive medium for knowledge building. Following researchers like Maturana, Varela, Von Foerster, Gärdenfors, Glenberg, MacWhinney, Steels and many others, the symposium encourages investigation on the relationship between knowledge and language. An underlying assumption for the symposium is that in order to analyze, model and understand the individual cognitive and social level of knowledge formation and the role of language in such contexts, one has to take into account the underlying dynamic adaptation processes and the embodied, multimodal pattern recognition basis of knowledge.
In AMKLC'05 symposium we are, in addition to the general theme introduced above, interested in the perspective of applied cognitive science: how do knowledge, language and cognition emerge in complex organizations and systems; what models offer explanatory framework for the emergence; which tools are useful in supporting efficient innovation, knowledge creation and communication.
Relevant topics include but are not limited to:
* Discourse environments
* Emergence of knowledge building and innovation
* Emergence of understandings or misunderstandings
* Models of
learning and innovation
* Design structures to
foster learning and innovation
* Self-organizing models of language
and cognition
* Analytic methods
to understand emergent cognition
* Agent-based,
neural-network and evolutionary models of cognition, knowledge and
language learning and use
