Why Cognitive Robotics Matters: Lessons from OntoAgent and LLM Deployment in HARMONIC for Safety-Critical Robot Teaming
Sanjay Oruganti, Sergei Nirenburg, Marjorie McShane +5
Deploying embodied AI agents in the physical world demands cognitive capabilities for long-horizon planning that execute reliably, deterministically, and transparently. We present…
Shapes of Cognition for Computational Cognitive Modeling
Marjorie McShane, Sergei Nirenburg, Sanjay Oruganti +1
Shapes of cognition is a new conceptual paradigm for the computational cognitive modeling of Language-Endowed Intelligent Agents (LEIAs). Shapes are remembered constellations of se…
HARMONIC: A Content-Centric Cognitive Robotic Architecture
Sanjay Oruganti, Sergei Nirenburg, Marjorie McShane +6
This paper introduces HARMONIC, a cognitive-robotic architecture designed for robots in human-robotic teams. HARMONIC supports semantic perception interpretation, human-like decisi…
HARMONIC: Cognitive and Control Collaboration in Human-Robotic Teams
Sanjay Oruganti, Sergei Nirenburg, Marjorie McShane +7
This paper describes HARMONIC, a cognitive-robotic architecture that integrates the OntoAgent cognitive framework with general-purpose robot control systems applied to human-robot…
