The Turing Test was proposed by Alan Turing in 1950; he called it the Imitation Game. In 1991 Hu Loebner prize competition, offering a f h Loebner started the 100,000 prize to the...
Many learning systems suffer from the utility problem; that is, that time after learning is greater than time before learning. Discovering how to assure that learned knowledge wil...
We formalize a model for supervised learning of action strategies in dynamic stochastic domains and show that PAC-learning results on Occam algorithms hold in this model as well. W...
Many reported discovery systems build discrete models of hidden structure, properties, or processes in the diverse fields of biology, chemistry, and physics. We show that the sear...
We propose an agent-based framework for assisting and simplifying person-to-person communication for information gathering tasks. As an example, we focus on locating experts for a...
A description classifier organizes concepts and relations into a taxonomy based on the results of subsumption computations applied to pairs of relation definitions. Until now, des...
GSAT is a randomized greedy local repair procedure that was introduced for solving propositional satis ability and constraint satisfaction problems. We present an improvement to G...
We investigate the range of applicability of Baker's approach to the frame problem using an action language. We show that for temporal projection and deterministic domains, B...
We analyze the amount of information needed to carry out model-based recognition tasks, in the context of a probabilistic data collection model, and independently of the recogniti...
