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…
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…
HARMONIC: A Framework for Explanatory Cognitive Robots
Sanjay Oruganti, Sergei Nirenburg, Marjorie McShane +3
We present HARMONIC, a framework for implementing cognitive robots that transforms general-purpose robots into trusted teammates capable of complex decision-making, natural communi…
