Introduction

Cognitive computing, inspired by the functioning of the human brain and cognitive processes, has emerged as a transformative field with wide-ranging applications in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and natural language processing. The interdisciplinary nature of cognitive computing draws from psychology, neuroscience, computer science, linguistics, and philosophy to develop systems capable of understanding, reasoning, and learning in a human-like manner. This special issue aims to explore recent advancements and challenges in cognitive computing, focusing on modeling human knowledge, problem-solving, learning, semantic computing, decision-making, cognitive architecture, artificial general intelligence (AGI), human-level AI, and LLM applications.

Topics of Interest

  • Modeling human knowledge representation and acquisition in cognitive systems
  • Approaches to modeling human problem-solving and learning mechanisms in cognitive computing
  • Semantic computing and its role in enhancing the understanding and interpretation of natural language
  • Modeling and analyzing decision-making processes in cognitive systems
  • Cognitive architecture and its implications for designing intelligent systems
  • Advances in artificial general intelligence (AGI) research and development
  • The quest for achieving human-level AI capabilities
  • LLM applications, where applications are organized as a network of LLM agents (using frameworks like AutoGen and LangGraph)
  • Ethical considerations and societal implications of cognitive computing technologies
