Translation Learning for Cooperative Language Acquisition
We propose a novel AI challenge called a Cooperative Language Acquisition Problem (CLAP) in which a 'joiner' agent learns from a dataset of interactions between agents in a target community. We propose and compare two methods for solving CLAPs; Imitation Learning (IL), and Emergent Communication pretraining and Translation Learning (ECTL) for solving CLAPs.

How "Self-Communication" May Bootstrap Cognition
In his 1991 book, *Consciousness Explained*, Daniel Dennett sketches a hypothetical, "just-so" story for the evolution of the "internal voice" involving the progressive developement of cognitive capabilities via "communicative autostimulation". In this post we explore these ideas and see if there is anything that we can learn for enhacing autocurricula in multiagent artificial intelligence.
