Abstract
This document provides a deep investigation into the simulation of cognitive processes—specifically, the development of enhanced models that simulate human thinking, decision-making, and learning, informed by the Data-Information-Knowledge-Wisdom-Purpose (DIKWP) Semantic Mathematics framework proposed by Prof. Yucong Duan. By exploring how DIKWP principles can be applied to cognitive modeling, we aim to understand the advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and cognitive science that could occur in the next 0-5 years. The analysis covers the theoretical foundations, current state of research, potential developments, challenges, and implications for AI systems that more closely emulate human cognition.
