PPT-Embodied Mental Imagery in Cognitive Robots

by Alessandro DI Nuovo Davide Marocco Santi Di Nuovo Angelo Cangelosi Presented by Seungwook Han Embodiment Cognition Hypothesis Many features of cognition are embodied in that they are deeply dependent upon characteristics of the physical body of an agent such that the agents beyondthebrain body plays a significant causal role or a physically constitutive role in that agents cognitive processing. 1 Mental Imagery. The idea that mental imagery may have a role in reasoning goes back a long way – one of the earliest attempts to study empirically the role that such imagery played in thinking Jessica Turner, Ph.D..
