Introduction

Cognitive infocommunications (CogInfoCom) investigates the link between the research areas of infocommunications and cognitive sciences, as well as the various engineering applications which have emerged as the synergic combination of these sciences. The primary goal of CogInfoCom is to provide a systematic view of how cognitive processes can co-evolve with infocommunications devices so that the capabilities of the human brain may not only be extended through these devices, irrespective of geographical distance, but may also interact with the capabilities of any artificially cognitive system. This merging and extension of cognitive capabilities is targeted towards engineering applications in which artificial and/or natural cognitive systems are enabled to work together more effectively.

Submission Topics

The conference is open for topic proposals that cover the definition of cognitive infocommunications. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: Socio-cognitive ICT including any approach that uses or influences collective knowledge through sensing and actuation of Internet activities and streams (see Tracks 4 & 5). Application-oriented papers focusing on smartphone based approaches are highly welcome.Embodied and enactive cognitive systems based on e.g. cognitive robotics and autonomous mental developmentCognitive biases in CogInfoCom: how biases in human perception and high-level reasoning can be put to use in CogInfoCom systemsCognitive control: control theoretical solutions based on or targeting cognitive and other human body related processes. More information on cognitive control - e.g. on its scope and goals - can be found hereIndustrial applications of CogInfoCom including e.g. production engineering, production management and relevant industrial applicationsErgonomics-based aspects of CogInfoComCogInfoCom channels based on e.g. sensory substitution, sensorimotor extension and high-level mapping between conceptual information and sensory data (for more details, cf. here) Speechability e.g. all areas contributing to cognitive linguistics and speech technologiesEthology-inspired engineering / Etho-roboticsMathability: modeling and understanding mathematical capabilitiesof merged human-ICT systems (for more details, cf. here)Cognitive informatics and mediaFuture Internet CogInfoCom aspects of e.g. Internet of Things and 3D InternetInfocommunication-related aspects of the cognitive sciencesIntelligent vehicle and transportation systems based on e.g. enhanced driver awareness, advanced driver assistance systemsInteraction capabilities of CogInfoCom systems including e.g. physiological interfaces including aspects of BCI, BAN, etc. modality-oriented CogInfoCom including all aspects of human-and-"X" interaction augmented content management and cognition based on e.g. 3D visualization, immersive augmented/virtual interaction, virtual avatars, etc.
