It’s been a rough week, but I wanted to get an update out if anyone actually reads this or cares. I’m still experimenting with different methods, but I think I found something that fits my needs. It would actually be similar to a translator in that it converts text into Read more…
I’ve spent a lot of time this week trying different approaches to natural language recognition. It could have gone better. There was a recent article on wired.com recently that talked about the exact problem I was having: That Machine Learning (which everyone loves to call Artificial Intelligence) is not really Read more…
So, I’ve been toying with this idea for a while now and last month, while talking with my brother about it, I decided to finally give it a try. I wanted to try to create a virtual “game master” that could interact with several players at a time and provide Read more…
One of the first things I wanted to try was image recognition. Of course, the first thing I did was tried to reinvent the wheel. The retina of the eye contains photoreceptors known as “rods and cones” that function as the input for our optical neurons. Each of these photoreceptors Read more…
For one of my earliest projects, I tried to use an Object Oriented language to model a neural network. Below is a simple pseudocode example. class Neuron { List children; double weight; double activation; double Fire(double input); }class Neuron { List children; double weight; double activation; double Fire(double input); } Read more…
Recently I’ve become very interested in Machine Learning, and though I’ve dabbled in Artificial Intelligence for as long as I can remember, I’ve never really made any progress. Some of my first experiences in the field were with the Prolog programming language around 25 years ago. The programming style Read more…
