Psychoanalytical model for automation and robotics

Research in automation focuses on systems which are capable of solving very complex tasks and problems. Artificial Intelligence and especially Cognitive Science have brought remarkable successes; however, in some areas the boarders of feasibility and further extension are reached. Compared to human intelligence the range of capabilities of the solutions is still modest. In the following we will argue why we see the necessity to introduce a novel approach for creating models, which possibilities and tools computer engineering can offer, why a psychoanalytical template is considered meaningful, and which open problems could be tackled or even broken through with this approach, respectively. The article is based on comprehensive research results in the course of several research projects including a European one. Involved persons originate from a number of research institutions in Austria, South Africa, and Canada.
