is entering an era of big integration, embracing six research
disciplines: vision, language, cognition, learning, robotics and
social ethics (game theories). Professor Zhu also discussed the
layered infrastructures underneath human communication,
collaborations, and learning, including the theory of mind;
the challenges of constructing a cognitive architecture for
human-machine communication and teaming; and recent
progress on visual commonsense reasoning.
