2024 September 12 13:30-15:30 Bonan Zhao (赵博囡 Princeton University) Computational models of causal generalization
Computational Cognitive Science is an interdisciplinary field seeking to understand human cognition and intelligence through computational principles. Logic has played fundamental roles in the early development of cognitive science, and keeps influencing today’s most cutting-edge research in the field. In this talk, I will briefly introduce the historical connection between logic and cognitive science, and share some of my work combining formal representations, probabilistic inference, and behavioral experiments, to account for how people synthesize concepts from very few data and generalize to novel situations.
