How does the mind/brain work? Can we provide computational and mathematical characterizations of the various procedures that make intelligent behavior possible? Can we replicate aspects of living intelligence in an artificial machine? The very nature of these questions make Artificial Intelligence an inherently multi-disciplinary effort. This is particularly so at Chicago.Our research interests divide principally into three areas:
