© 2018 Winfield. Theory of mind is the term given by philosophers and psychologists for the ability to form a predictive model of self and others. In this paper we focus on synthetic models of theory of mind. We contend firstly that such models-espec... Read More about Experiments in artificial theory of mind: From safety to story-telling.

Unsteady 1-D thrust modeling with EOS effects for ram accelerator experiments at different bores (2018)
Journal Article
Knowlen, C., Bauer, P., Bengherbia, T., Yao, Y., Bruckner, A. P., & Giraud, M. (2018). Unsteady 1-D thrust modeling with EOS effects for ram accelerator experiments at different bores. Aerotecnica Missili & Spazio, 97(1), 19-26. https://doi.org/10.1007/BF03404761

Advances made to the unsteady, one-dimensional (1-D) modeling of the thermally choked ram accelerator thrust-Mach number characteristics include the use of real-gas equations of state to account for the compressibility effects of the combustion produ...

Anticipation in robotics (2018)
Book Chapter
Winfield, A. F., & Hafner, V. V. (2018). Anticipation in robotics. In R. Poli (Ed.), Handbook of Anticipation: Theoretical and Applied Aspects of the Use of Future in Decision Making. Cham: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-31737-3_73-1

In this chapter, we introduce anticipatory robotic systems. We show how intelligent robots can anticipate the future, by outlining two broad approaches: the first shows how robots can use anticipation to learn how to control their own bodies and the... Read More about Anticipation in robotics.
