Synopsis

Android epistemology is the

exploration of the space of possible machines and their capacities

for knowledge, beliefs, attitudes, desires, and for action in

accord with their mental states.

Booknews

Contributing computer scientists and philosophers examine, defend, elaborate, and challenge the idea that machines can be designed to reason, create, and act on preferences and desires. They incorporate material from the fields of artificial intelligence, robotics, neural networks, linguistics, and cognitive psychology in discussions on the representationalist hypothesis, computer vision and pattern recognition, reflexive mental characteristics, and the robotic use of memory and imagination in planning goal-directed motion.
