# TOAQ Group | Cognitive Sciences & AI Research

TOAQ is dedicated to the rigorous study of **Cognitive Sciences** and their application to artificial intelligence. We explore how computational models can simulate cognitive processes and non-linear dynamics, guided by a strong ethical framework.

## 🚀 Core Research & Initiatives

* **Cognitive Modeling**: Developing non-linear computational architectures to simulate emotional-like states without explicit symbolic encoding.
* **Voice & Audio Datasets**: Curating open vocal datasets designed to support research in human-machine interaction, speech analysis, and synthetic voice generation.
* **Ethical AI Frameworks**: Building transparent foundations for resilient, socially-aware, and ethically aligned AI systems.
* **Research Broadcasting**: Bridging the gap between complex academic research and the tech community through our 3-series podcast ecosystem and open publications.

## 🛠️ Community Resources & Open Collaboration

We believe that advancing AI safety and cognitive modeling requires diverse, open-source collaboration from researchers, developers, and ethicists.

* **[Models](https://huggingface.co/TOAQ/models)** – Access our pre-trained cognitive models and non-linear computational frameworks.
* **[Datasets](https://huggingface.co/TOAQ/datasets)** – Explore our vocal datasets, behavioral traces, and simulation data.
* **[GitHub](https://github.com/TOAQ-oss)** – Review our open-source implementations and tools.

## 🔗 Connect & Contribute

We actively collaborate with peers.

Coming Spring 2026: A dedicated submission pipeline for researchers to share papers, datasets, and collaborate on our frameworks. In the meantime, explore our open resources and stay tuned on toaq.fr.
