It counts as empirically proven that infants can individuate objects. Object individuation is
assumed to be fundamental in the development of infants' ontology within the object-first …

Despite the huge literature on reaching behavior, a clear idea about the motor control
processes underlying its development in infants is still lacking. This article contributes to …

Does modeling matter? We address this question by providing a broad survey of the
computational models of cognitive development that have been proposed and studied over …

The Mind and Brain are usually considered as one and the same nonlinear, complex
dynamical system, in which information processing can be described with vector and tensor …

While research on object individuation assumes that even very young children are able to
perceive objects as particulars, we argue that the results of relevant studies can be …

Artificial agents are often trained to perform non-Markovian tasks, ie, tasks in which the
sensory inputs can be ambiguous. Agents typically learn how to perform such tasks using …

We present new evidence to support criticisms of infant looking time experiments. One such
experiment, in which Baillargeon concluded from looking times that infants understand …

Computational modeling implements developmental theory in a precise manner, allowing
generation, explanation, integration, and prediction. Several modeling techniques are …
