Cognitive Modeling

16 - 21 March 2020, India

Cognitive Models are essentially theories of how people make decisions, implemented through computer simulations. Cognitive modeling studies human cognition by creating models of cognitive behavior. It also allows an individual to understand the effects of existing designs on human cognition and how improvements to existing designs could in turn enhance human cognition. This knowledge could be applied on developing interventions in varied applied domains.

This winter school is organised by the Cognitive Modeling Group, University of Groningen (the Netherlands), the Applied Cognitive Science Laboratory, Indian Institute of Technology Mandi (India) and Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (India). It is hosted by the Indian Institute of Thechnology Mandi.

Objectives of the winter school

To provide a forum to train student, researchers and professionals on the best practices in the area of cognitive modeling.
To provide a forum for trained students and researchers to work with leaders and pioneers in the cognitive modeling domain.
Expose researchers to the state of the art models in basic and applied domains
Involve top international researchers in the area of cognitive modeling to present their work as part of the winter school
