Cognitive architecture refers to a theory about the structure of the human mind.

Description

One of the main goals of a cognitive architecture is to summarize the various results of cognitive psychology in a comprehensive computer simulation.

The results need to be in a formalized form so far that they can be the basis of a computer program.

The formalized models can be used to further refine a comprehensive theory of cognition, and more immediately, as a commercially usable model.

Successful cognitive architectures include ACT-R (Adaptive Control of Thought, ACT), SOAR and OpenCog.
