Description
The Cognitive Science Society’s Computational Modeling Prizes recognize outstanding full-paper submissions involving computational cognitive modeling at its conference. Four prizes are awarded, one each in perception/action, language, higher-level cognition, and applied cognition. The program recognizes computational modeling across these areas rather than concentrating on a single cognitive science topic.
The prizes take a broad view of computational cognitive modeling. Eligible approaches include neural networks, symbolic models, Bayesian models, dynamic systems, and hybrids, but are not limited to these methods. The awards page welcomes researchers at any career level and of any nationality. Consideration is integrated into conference paper submission rather than a separate prize application.
