Ideograms Representation for Cognitive Systems in Robotics

The cognitive psychology has focused on understanding how humans think and solve problems. As analogy, the robotics systems have used this research to try to make robots more "intelligent" imitating cognitive models. How things are perceived and transformed in mental structures, and how they are retained, is still an open question, although a lot of progress has been done. For example, some studies have demonstrated that the use of diagrams retains concepts in memory better than other approaches based on text or words, and making the reasoning about them easier. In this direction, we want to propose an ideogram representation for robotic systems in cooperation with humans that can help to provide a natural link between the determination of perceptive symbols and their manipulation in reasoning.
