Comp Ch. 11

uses programming that emphasizes statistical analysis to calculate the probability of various outcomes in order to find the best solution

used to assist software in reaching conclusions and making recommendations

AI software maintains a library of problem cases and solutions (relies on retrieve, reuse, revise, retain)

form of conventional AI that uses a graphical model to represent a set of variables and their relationships & dependencies

form of conventional AI that is popular in programming robots..it stimulates intelligence by combining many semi-autonomous modules

programmed to function like a human expert in a particular field

creates software that can learn for itself

reasoning that is approximate rather than precise

based on fuzzy logic and used to control machines

derives intelligence by attempting many solutions and throwing away ones that don't work

form of evolutionary computation that is used to solve large, complex problems where a number of algorithms or models change and evolve until the best one emerges

popular form of computational AI that attempts to simulate the functioning of a human brain (programmed to accomplish task through repetition)

method of determining if a machine exhibits human intelligence (a human talks to a human and machine, if it can't tell which is which, it passes the test)

point in time that computers exceed humans in intelligence

attempt to simulate a human brain at a molecular level in software running on one of the world's fastest super computers, IBM's Blue Gene (worked on a mouse)

machine w/ intelligence that exceeds human intelligence

developing mechanical or computer devices to perform tasks that require a high degree of precision or are tedious or hazardous for humans

businesses use robots for ____,_____,_____ jobs

offers $2 million for robot that can cross desert on its own

combines hardware & AI software that permit computers to capture, store, and interpret visual images & pictures (kinect)

uses AI techniques to enable computers to generate and understand natural human languages, such as english

enables a computer to understand and react to spoken statements and commands

this is popular and allows users to dictate text as they would naturally speak

speech, handwriting, and face recognition

uses AI techniques in software that can translate handwritten characters or words into computer-readable data

consists of programs and a knowledge based used to perform a specific task for a person, process, or another program (Siri)

greets visitors as they open a website

branch of AI that works to program computers to express themselves through art, music, poetry, and other outlets

facilitate the invention of new art forms that arise out of the developments of digital technologies

independently paints large, impressive works of art with a paintbrush and canvas

reads poems by people and creates its own just like it

writes songs

in artificial intelligence, _____ computation is based on a genetic algorithm to solve complex problems

Facial recognition is used as a(n) ________ process to tag photos in Facebook.

singularity embraces the idea of _______ and other recent trends in technology.

All of the following are AI methodologies that rely on a human to give instructions for problem solving EXCEPT ________.

the concept of singularity predicts that computers will be _______.

a(n) _______ system is software that is knowledgeable in a particular field or area.
