9355034 Palmer Twenty members of Berkeley's Institute of Cognitive Studies propose an integrated graduate research training program in the interdisciplinary field of cognitive science with a focus on spatial cognition. We request funds to support a five-year training program for five graduate students to consist of both coursework and research on the theme of spatial cognition, including spatial perception, language, and reasoning. Students will we required to take a set of five basic lecture courses and a series of research seminars to ensure adequate background knowledge in computer science, linguistics, psychology, and biology on topics integral to research on spatial cognition. Research training will occur as the trainees engage in research on topics within a number of well-established projects at Berkeley on the theme of spatial cognition, including: (l) cross-linguistic studies of lexical semantics, (2) the nature of spatical and temporal metaphors, (3)the acquisition of spatial language by children in different cultures, (4) the "psychophysics" of spatial terms, (5) the biological basis of spatial cognition, (6) the representation of spatial knowledge, (7) computational models for understanding, learning, and producing spatial descriptions, and (8) biological aspects of spatial cognition in animals and humans. Both faculty and trainees will take part in a series of research seminars focusing on the results of these research projects. ***

小行星9355034 伯克利认知研究所的20名成员提出了一个认知科学跨学科领域的综合研究生研究培训计划，重点是空间认知。 我们请求资金支持五名研究生的五年培训计划，其中包括以空间认知为主题的课程作业和研究，包括空间感知、语言和推理。 学生将被要求采取一套五个基本的讲座课程和一系列的研究研讨会，以确保在计算机科学，语言学，心理学和生物学的主题上的空间认知研究不可或缺的足够的背景知识。 研究培训将发生在学员从事研究的主题在伯克利分校的一些成熟的项目在空间认知的主题，包括：（1）词汇语义的跨语言研究;（2）空间隐喻和时间隐喻的本质;（3）不同文化背景下儿童对空间语言的习得;（4）空间术语的“心理物理学”;（5）空间认知的生物学基础，（6）空间知识的表征，（7）理解、学习和产生空间描述的计算模型，（8）动物和人类空间认知的生物学方面。 教师和学员将参加一系列的研究研讨会，重点是这些研究项目的结果。 ***
