Unreferenced date March 2011 Computational cognition is the study of the computational basis of learning and inference by mathematical modeling, computer simulation, and behavioral experiments, seeking to learn the basis behind the processing of information. Propositions Section OR date March 2011 To make cognition computable , the following tasks should be addressed first How to define the states and the metric systems of cognition. How to measure a cognition. In 2004, Tao Yang Wuxi Tao Yang suggested a way to put cognition into a framework that is dual to the universe . He called such a framework the cognition, and called the Universe Cognition pair the Unicogse. Theory of the Unicogse The theory of the Unicogse provides a way to assign measurable means to the foundations of cognition information and truth. Information plays the same role in the Cognition as matter plays in the universe. Truth plays the same role in the Cognition as energy plays in the universe. By doing so, we expect to measure truth and information in the cognition just like we do for energy and matter in the universe. This is a way to make cognition measurable .

Comparative cognition is the comparative study of the mechanisms and origins of cognition in various species . From a biological point of view, work is being done on the brains of Drosophila melanogaster fruit flies that should yield techniques precise enough to allow an understanding of the workings of the human brain on a scale appreciative of individual groups of neurons rather than the more regional scale previously used. Similarly, gene activity in the human brain is better understood through examination of the brains of mice by the Seattle based Allen Institute for Brain Science see link below , yielding the freely available Allen Brain Atlas . This type of study is related to comparative cognition, but better classified as one of comparative genomics . Increasing emphasis in psychology and ethology on the biological aspects of perception and behavior is bridging the gap between genomics and behavioral analysis .

Cognitive Numerical cognition is a subdiscipline of cognitive science that studies the cognitive, developmental and neural bases of number s and mathematics . As with many cognitive science endeavors, this is a highly interdisciplinary topic, and includes researchers in cognitive psychology , developmental psychology , neuroscience and cognitive linguistics .

Topics included in the domain of numerical cognition include How do non human animals process numerosity? How do infants acquire an understanding of numbers and how much is inborn ? How do humans associate linguistic symbols with numerical quantities? How do these capacities underlie our ability to perform complex calculations? What are the neural bases of these abilities, both in humans and in non humans?
