Using computers to model and extend the human mind...
The University of Georgia has always seen cognitive science as
an interdisciplinary field where computer
science intersects with philosophy,
psychology,
linguistics,
engineering,
and other fields.
This comprises both classical artificial intelligence, which focuses
on getting computers to behave intelligently,
and newer approaches to cognitive computing, where the computer is seen
as an extension rather than a model of the human mind.
The Artificial Intelligence Center is an interdepartmental
research and instructional center within the Franklin
College of Arts and Sciences of the University
of Georgia.
Strengths include logic programming, expert
systems, neural nets, genetic algorithms, natural language
processing, and computational psycholinguistics.
The Artificial Intelligence Center houses two degree programs,
the Master of Science program in Artificial Intelligence and the
bachelor's degree program in Cognitive Science.
Affiliated with the Center
are over 75 people hailing from over 10 different countries.
We pride ourselves on the diversity of our student body and
the ability of our program to allow for the pursuit of personal
research interests.
