  "Based on previous experiments in linking Kant's
  epistemology to cognitive science and knowledge
  engineering, this paper suggests a new approach to
  Kant's Critique of Pure Reason rooted in cybernetics
  and specifically adapted to the needs of scientists
  and engineers engaged in the design and construction
  of learning robots. We claim that "a priori knowledge"
  - as developed by Kant - could play a major role
  in a robot that needs to acquire its world model"
