ConsScale Simplified Rating Process

This rating process provides a quick approximation of the potential level of cognitive development of either an existing agent or even a computational model not yet implemented. The main benefit of this procedure is that a rating can be done within seconds simply using the ConsScale Calculator.

  The ConsScale Simplified Rating process assumes the presence of architectural components and cognitive skills just by looking at the design blueprints of the system. Therefore, there is no need to perform any test or any domain-specific instantiation of the scale.

  Of course, the rating obtained following this procedure is not accurate and can be considered just a vast approximation (and probably too optimistic). In the case of implemented agents, the Standard Evaluation Process should be performed in order to obtain a more accurate and realistic measure. However, the simplified rating provides a conceptual tool to evaluate the potential ConsScale level of a cognitive architecture even at design time, before any implementation of the model exists.
