Many computational models of development show how learning may be implemented but they do not often address the relative criticality of the various supporting elements. This paper draws on experience from experimental ...

Developmental robotics is concerned with the design of algorithms that promote robot adaptation and learning through qualitative growth of behaviour and increasing levels of competence. This paper uses ideas and inspiration ...

Developmental psychology has long recognized the presence of stages in human cognitive development, although the underlying causes and processes are still an open question and subject to much debate. This article draws ...
