Symposium co-located at:
KogWis 2016: Space for Cognition
13th Biannual Conference of the German Society for Cognitive Science on 26 – 30 September 2016, Bremen, Germany.
ProSocrates’16: Problem Solving, Creativity and Spatial Reasoning in Cognitive Systems
The ProSocrates Symposium will take place on Friday the 
30th of September, between 11.30 and 16.00, with a lunch break.
This will be preceded by Professor Bipin’s Indurkhya’s tutorial – Workshop on Creativity –which will take place in the same day between 9.00-11.00. This tutorial will offer the unique opportunity to participate in a creativity-stimulating exercise.
Bipin’s talk in the ProSocrates Symposium will focus on analyzing previous results of applying this technique.
