“…Sandia's cognitive model framework is unique in its instantiation of human decisionmaking (Klein, 1997), as opposed to common rule-based approaches (Forsythe, Bernard, Xavier, Abbott, Speed, & Brannon, 2002: Forsythe & Raybourn, 2001. The cognitive models incorporate oscillating systems ideas concerning the neurophysiology underlying human cognition (Klimesch, 1996), which is based on a foundation of psychologically plausible models of human multi-modal memory representation (Solomon & Barsalou, 2001), cognitive-affective interplay LeDoux (1998) and metacognition (Mazzoni & Nelson, 1998).…”

The intent of Sandia National Laboratories' Human Interactions (HI) project is to demonstrate initial virtual human interaction modeling capability. To accomplish this, we have begun the process of simulating human behavior in a manner that produces life-like characteristics and movement, as well as creating the framework for models that are based on the most current experimental research in cognition, perception, physiology, and cognitive modeling. Currently the simulated human models can sense each other, react to each other, and move about in a simulated 3D environment. A preliminary action generation or motor-level cognition model, which transforms abstract actions generated by high-level cognition to actions that can be carried out by a simulated physical human model, has also been developed. Our work has yielded models of perceptual, spatial, and motor functioning and memory that will be embedded in upgrades to the cognitive framework.

We assert that there exists a broad range of applications for computational cognitive modeling that have been largely unexplored. In some cases, data mining and expert systems approaches have been utilized to accomplish similar objectives. However, there are distinct advantages that come from basing technologies on human-like computational cognitive models. This paper describes several illustrations of the technologies that may be created based on realistic computer models of human knowledge and cognitive processes.Those developing and implementing computational models of human cognitive processes have generally focused on one of three areas of application. These areas have included (1) academic research, (2) human performance estimation for system assessment and (3) human behavior representation for synthetic entities. Intelligent-tutoring systems may be considered a fourth area, however most in this field have operated outside the mainstream of computational cognitive modeling. In this discussion, a program of research will be described in which the intent has been to lay the groundwork for a broad range of practical applications for computational cognitive modeling.The following describes prototype systems that have been developed to illustrate the possibilities.
