Animal Cognition in Urban Environments: The effect of diet and the gut microbiome Ghent University
Natural habitats are disappearing at record speeds, and our world is becoming increasingly urbanised. Recently, researchers started exploring how cognitive abilities (the mechanisms by which animals acquire, process, store and act on information from the environment) may allow animals to adapt to urban environments. Many of these studies revealed cognitive differences between
urban and non-urban dwelling animals and linked these to ...

Cultural Differences in Breakdown of Social Cognition in Neuropsychiatric Disorders: Western vs Chinese Consistencies and Specificities KU Leuven
Social cognition refers to cognitive processes during social interaction in which people understand others and respond to their emotional expressions. These processes are susceptible to cultural differences. These cultural differences are typically more pronounced in psychiatric and neurological conditions that are associated with symptoms in social interaction. This project aims to conduct a comprehensive assessment of social cognitive ...

Thomas Aquinas's theory of self cognition in context KU Leuven
Whether self-cognition of the human mind is unmediated or mediated through cognition of extramental things is one of the most disputed questions among medieval philosophers. Thomas Aquinas made a great contribution to this debate, because he puts forward an innovative theory of self-cognition inspired by the Aristotelian tradition. Specifically, he believes that in its natural state, the human mind always cognizes itself through the mediation ...
Human-robot collaborative construction system for shotcrete digitization and automation through advanced perception, cognition, mobility and additive manufacturing skills KU Leuven
RobetArme will deliver a human-robot collaborative construction system for the automation of shotcrete (i.e. concrete spray casting), which is an emerging technology in construction domain. A multitasking Inspection-Reconnaissance mobile manipulator-IRR (ROB) will fuse the latest Geotechnical models (BIM/CIM) (DTT), high-density visual data and semantic SLAM (CERTH) representations to automate modelling and fast reconstruction (DTU) of the ...
