  1. 16. Agency and Artefacts : A cognitive semiotic exploration of design

    Författare :Juan Mendoza-Collazos; Kognitiv semiotik; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Agency; enhanced agency; agency hierarchy; derived agency; material agency; intentionality; prior intentions; intentions in action; pictorial representations; artefacts; tool-making; design theory; design semiotics; design research; phenomenology; cognitive semiotics; agentive semiotics; semiotic hierarchy; 4E cognition; bio-cultural evolution; philosophy of design; philosophy of technology;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the role of artefacts in relation to human agency and design within a cognitive semiotics framework. It deals with questions such as What is agency? What are artefacts and how does agency relate to them? What kind of intentions are involved in the activity of designing? What is human-specific with respect to agency and design? How can the origins and evolution of design be explained? Addressing these questions, the thesis proposes a layered model of agency for explaining the relations between different grades of agentive complexity. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Product-Service System Designing for Environmental Sustainability : Insights into Design Cognition of Experienced Product Developers

    Författare :Abhijna Neramballi; Tomohiko Sakao; Mattias Lindahl; Claudia Eckert; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Design cognition; Product-service system designing; Product designing; Design support; Design for environmental sustainability.;

    Sammanfattning : The overall objective of this research is to support practitioners within the manufacturing industry to effectively design product-service system (PSS)-based solutions with relatively lower environmental impacts than typical product-centric solutions. Design research methodology (DRM) is applied to systematically address this objective with both descriptive and prescriptive approaches. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Holistic Grasping: Affordances, Grasp Semantics, Task Constraints

    Författare :Martin Hjelm; Danica Kragic; Markus Vincze; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; robotics; robotic grasping; grasping; cognition; embodied cognition; computer vision; machine learning; artificial intelligence; AI; Gaussian process; Gaussian process latent variable model; GPLVM; 3D vision; point cloud features; robotik; manipulation; datorseende; maskininlärning; artificiell intelligens; kognition; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Sammanfattning : Most of us perform grasping actions over a thousand times per day without giving it much consideration, be it from driving to drinking coffee. Learning robots the same ease when it comes to grasping has been a goal for the robotics research community for decades. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Brain morphology and behaviour in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata) : Effects of plasticity and mosaic brain evolution

    Författare :Stephanie Fong; Niclas Kolm; Björn Rogell; Stephen Montgomery; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; brain plasticity; cognition; reversal learning; spatial learning; directed selection; mosaic brain; heritability; brain morphology; boldness; relative telencephalon size; inhibitory control; detour task; Poecilia reticulata; etologi; Ethology;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding how brains have evolved and subsequently culminated in the huge variation in brain morphology among contemporary vertebrate species has fascinated researchers for many decades. It has been recognized that brain morphology is both genetically and environmentally determined. LÄS MER

  5. 20. The prefrontal cortex and information processing : nitric oxide signaling studied in an animal model of schizophrenia

    Författare :Kim Fejgin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :schizophrenia; nitric oxide; prepulse inhibition; phencyclidine; prefrontal cortex; cGMP; baclofen; cognition;

    Sammanfattning : The prefrontal cortex has been extensively linked to several cognitive domains that are severely compromised in schizophrenia. It has therefore become a key region for studies on the disabling cognitive dysfunction commonly observed in patients with schizophrenia. LÄS MER
