environments in computational areas. This means, that it is not sufficient to
collect lots of sensor data as fast as possible and react on them by several
predefined rules. A system has to extract the higher semantic meaning of a
current situation. This advantage of situation awareness in a system is used to
develop corresponding action plans within a decision unit that works on a very
high semantic level.
Having a look at the requirements of such a system, it has been decided to use
a bionic approach to meet these demands. There are many different, partly
conflicting models available, describing the human perception and decision
making. They are describing the human behavior from different points of view.
The neuro-psychoanalytical model of the human brain which was essentially
improved in the last 20 years, is the most complete functional model of humans
mind. A first approach of a neuro-psychoanalytical based concept has been
developed at the Institute of Computer Technology with assistance of various
technical centers of excellence and close collaboration with neurologists and
psychoanalysts.
The research shall discover and define the elements that are needed between the
two borders of perception and action. The main focus is to improve the existing
concept with further cooperations of the neuro-psychoanalytical association and
to describe a technical model that enables an implementation within a technical
system. This is done by transferring it into a technical model describing the
functionality of each relevant function block. These blocks can then be
interpreted and implemented in further research.
It will be part of the research to implement several modules for testing
purposes, using simulation environments. Autonomous embodied agents are used as
a target platform for the developed model. These agents are equipped with
sensors, indicating the status of their surrounding as well as their internal
status, comparable to the homeostasis of the humans body. They can manipulate
their environment with actuators. The agent has to perceive and recognize the
current situation and take decisions that guarantees to hold the internal
values (representing the homeostasis) within an optimum.
Although, the target platform of the perception and decision unit are embodied
autonomous agents, a further research in transforming this unit into other
applications is considered. This can be e.g. applications in robotics, building
automation, web agents or other areas making decisions for actions on perceived
data.
