COGNITIVE NEUROSYSTEMS LAB

Cognitive NeuroSystems Lab

Dr. Mike D'Zmura

COGNITIVE ROBOTICS LAB

Cognitive Robotics Lab (CRL)

Dr. Jeffrey L. Krichmar

Designing robotic systems whose behaviors are guided by large-scale simulations of the mammalian brain. Because these simulated nervous systems are embodied on a robot, they provide a powerful tool for studying brain function during behavior.

COMPUTATION OF LANGUAGE LAB (CoLaLab)

Computation of Language Lab (CoLaLab)

Dr. Lisa Pearl

We investigate the complex system we call human language, focusing on information acquisition and extraction. The main technique of investigation we use is empirically-grounded computational modeling, drawing on constraints from realistic examples of human language and what we know about how humans process language information.
