Abstract – This paper studies the use of facial recognition technologies to prevent crime. The most common technologies that are being used for security and authentication purposes are analyzed. The Eigenface method is the most used facial recognition technology, it can be used for security and authentication purposes. This method focuses on the aspects of … Read more
The controversy over whether artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence will perpetually be a topic of debate that splits evenly down the middle. This feud led all the way back to the 1950’s when Alan Turing, an english computer scientist, coined the “Turing Test” which was a primitive way of determining if a computer could be … Read more
Introduction In these days, Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have become widely used in power system problems. AI techniques work in off line and have the ability to give better results. The increase in size and complexity of electric power systems along with increase in power demand makes it a great need to use AI techniques. … Read more
Artificial intelligence is something we have tried to manage for decades, and we are getting better and better every day. Overall you can describe artificial intelligence as we are trying to combine the human brain with a computer, we want our computers to be able to think by them self and think like humans. History … Read more
The continuing advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) provides many unique and troubling ethical issues concerning the boundaries that demarcate a robot from a human being, and whether the former is worthy of any moral considerations. Notably, the potential roboticisation of the sex trade, and the introduction of nascent AI poses the question of whether a … Read more
Why are we afraid of talking robots? The advent of artificial intelligence has become a highly misconstrued subject. The quick progression of technology has been negatively portrayed to even convey an apocalyptic sense of fear. Although these depictions may oftentimes be fictional, they uncover the very real concerns and relationships that many people seem to … Read more
Descartes creates two rules to distinguish machine thinking from human thinking. The first rule is that machines ‘could never use words, or put together signs, as we do in order to declare our thoughts’ (Study Guide:105). Although he states in Discourse on a Method that machines can ‘[utter] words’ (Study Guide:105), they would never be … Read more
ANN-embedded expert system : Expert systems (ES) are a branch of applied artificial intelligence (AI), and were developed by the AI community in the mid-1960s. The basic idea behind an expert system is simply that expertise, which is the vast body of task-specific knowledge and is transferred from a human to a computer. This knowledge … Read more
Chapter 1 Introduction to Project 1.1 Project Vision Robotics is the part of technological advancement the human lifestyle. The real definition of robot is it always sense-think-process to get in action. Automation in robot controlling and processing is the key to progress in it. Semi or full artificial intelligence in robot is the pioneer area … Read more
“Can machines think?”, the notion of Artificial Intelligence was first, seriously, contemplated by Alan Turing; considered by many as the ‘father of computer science’. At first glance, especially at the time this question was first asked, one might dismiss it quickly – how can it be possible for a machine to think, they simply do … Read more
Shortest Path Algorithms: Shortest path algorithms are very fundamental in much of the work on routing. The number of shortest path algorithms which have been developed and published runs into the hundreds and there are new variants still appearing. The best know algorithms such as Dijkstra’s and Bellman-Ford algorithm, run in low order polynomial time. … Read more
Artificial Intelligence is increasing in its ability to do complicated tasks reliably. I am going to discuss the potential it has to replace a doctor – specifically a surgeon, researcher or consultant. Some tasks in a doctor’s routine are already being automated, similar to some tasks in the lives of the public. However, there are … Read more
Once the computer was successfully developed in the 1950’s, it allowed cognitive psychology to become a dominant approach in the field of Psychology. Cognition needs to be modelled to aid cognitive scientists in understanding how the brain works, to predict human behaviour and to create machines that can perform human tasks (Gentner, D., & Forbus, … Read more
Alan Mathison Turing, a 20th century mathematician is commonly known as the father of modern computing. Born June 23, 1912 in Maida Vale (a residential area in London), England. Before his death in 1957, Turing would make some of the greatest mathematical breakthroughs in the technological age. His discoveries would go beyond computing alone and … Read more
In this essay, I will be outlining John Searle’s Chinese room thought experiment. Further, I will address the three major objections raised to his argument labeled the Systems Reply, Robot Reply, and Brain Simulator Reply. After addressing and carefully discussing these, I will discuss Searle’s replies to these objections and state whether or not I … Read more
