Current development of AI in computer games

As the computer capabilities and as a result online computer games improve, the Artificial Itelligence software that is being used to manage these games is also evolving. In the annual Artificial Intelligence and Interactive Digital Entertainment Conference (AIIDE) held at Stanford University last month, the progress of and different aspects of AI has been discussed […]

AI programs compete for prize for passing Turing test

Six computer programs will compete for the $100,000 and a gold medal Loebner prize in order to pass the Turing Test. The test was devised half a century ago by the great mathematician Alan Turing. The procedure of test is simply to be able to recognize a computer program from a human speaker, without knowing […]

New word recognition software for internet

The new software that has recently been introduced by Cognition Technologies, is aimed to teach the computer the “meanings” of words.This might just be the beginning of the web 3.0, before the 2.0 version is over. It also looks like a huge step paving the way toward the strong Artificial Intelligence. When the computers are […]

Teaching robots to follow

Scientists at UC Davis in US have come up with a solution to teach robots to follow a leader by using behavioral cues. Usually robots have trouble following a leader when the leader disappears out of sight. The robots that are enabled with behavioral cue detection have performed with much more success in predicting and […]

Teaching language to A.I.

A new project that is about to start in Plymouth University of United Kingdom, the research team is aiming to teach robots the “meaning” of words. Currently the robots can process words without grasping the meaning like humans. The project aims to do this by mimicking the language teaching techniques to a child. In order […]

Robots learn moving autonomously

A new software that has been presented at the Artificial Life Conference in UK, demonstrated the virtual entities learning ability without human intervention to do a particular move, by only knowing the ultimate position. The robot does not know anything about its environment in the beginning. Then by trial and error, it gradually refines its […]
