Laboratory of Machine Cognition was opened at Higher Institute for ITIS  in 2014. Scientists of the laboratory work on creating of Machine Consciousness.

Major Fields of research:

- Machine cognition

- Neurobiologically inspired systems

- Cutting edge in AI

Key projects

-Spikes (joint projects with  KFU neurobiology lab)Process big data of cortical column of rat to find causality of the neurons spikes.


-Helper (joint project with Digital Media Lab) The aim of a project  is to provide universal and open source tool for neurobiological data analysis.


-NEUCOGAR.  Neuro cognitive architecture Validation of the neuropsychological model of Lövheim: model of computational emotions. Answering the question: “How can we make machine feel emotions?”


-Calvin (joint project with ARS chair). The aim of a project is  to create the new elemental basis for non- Von Neumann architecture of computers more effective and robust in real life environment.
