Abstract

Cognitive systems are capable of human-like actions such as perception, learning, planning, reasoning, self- and context-awareness, interaction, and performing actions in unstructured environments. The authors present an implemented framework for an interactive cognitive system enabling human-centered, adaptive industrial assistance in cooperative, complex human-in-the-loop assembly tasks. The functionality of the cognitive system includes enabling perception and awareness, understanding and interpreting situations, reasoning, decision making, and autonomous acting.
