The latest developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, and the parallel
advances in robotics, have contributed recently to a shift in the scientific approach to …

Developmental robotics is an emerging field located at the intersection of robotics, cognitive
science and developmental sciences. This paper elucidates the main reasons and key …

This book addresses the central role played by development in cognition. The focus is on
applying our knowledge of development in natural cognitive systems, specifically human …

This paper proposes cognitive developmental robotics (CDR) as a new principle for the
design of humanoid robots. This principle may provide ways of understanding human …

This position paper proposes that the study of embodied cognitive agents, such as
humanoid robots, can advance our understanding of the cognitive development of complex …

Cognitive developmental robotics (CDR) aims to provide new understanding of how
human's higher cognitive functions develop by means of a synthetic approach that …

In this paper, we review current knowledge on tool use development in infants in order to
provide relevant information to cognitive developmental roboticists seeking to design …

Interesting systems, whether biological or artificial, develop. Starting from some initial
conditions, they respond to environmental changes, and continuously improve their …

The average toddler can run circles around the world's most sophisticated robots. Sure,
robots can dole out pharmaceuticals, build cars, vacuum your house, and collect rocks from …

Inspired by infant development, we propose a three staged developmental framework for an
anthropomorphic robot manipulator. In the first stage, the robot is initialized with a basic …
