Abstract
This article briefly introduces the artificial-brain-building paradigm developed at the Advanced Telecommunication Research Institute International (ATR). The ATR Artificial Brain Project consists of two related themes: dedicated hardware and psychodynamic architecture. The first theme includes work on the theory of pulsed paraneural networks (PPNN), experiments with q-cellular automata, and studies toward a post-FPGA technology for 3-dimensional evolvable elastic circuits. The second theme involves an original version of the psychodynamic theory of mind, investigating dynamics phenomena in simulated working memories (MemeStorms), testing the behaviors of psychodynamic robots, and building of an environment for growing intelligent systems.
