摘要
Cognitive Computing breaks the boundary between two separate fields,neuroscience and computer science.It paves the way for machines to have reasoning abilities which is analogous to human.The research field of cognitive computing is interdisciplinary,and uses knowledge and methods from many areas such as psychology,biology,signal processing,physics,information theory,mathematics,and statistics.The development of cognitive computing will keep cross-fertilizing these research areas.However,in collaborative robotics applications there still remain many open problems for using cognitive computing theories.Technologies like computational cognition and perception(CCP)and computational neuroscience(CN)are driving as the best tools for upgrading the robots with near human intelligence,which can be intended to physically interact with humans in a shared workspace.
