Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom)

This book describes the theoretical foundations of cognitive infocommunications (CogInfoCom), and provides a survey on state-of-the-art solutions and applications within the field. The book covers aspects of cognitive infocommunications in research fields such as affective computing, BCI, future internet, HCI, HRI, sensory substitution, and virtual/augmented interactions, and also introduces newly proposed paradigms and initiatives under the field, including CogInfoCom channels, speechability and socio-cognitive ICT. The book focuses on describing the merging between humans and information and communications technology (ICT) at the level of cognitive capabilities with an approach towards developing future cognitive ICT.

Provides a comprehensive overview of cognitive info communications Covers theoretical and practical aspects of cognitive info communications Discusses applications employing various aspects of info-communication Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
