Computer AI Test
Define an artificial neural network
A computer representation of knowledge that attempts to mimic the neural networks of the human body
Explain recorded speach
A large collection of words is recorded digitally and individual words are selected to make up a message
Explain dynamic voice generation
A computer examines the letters that make up a word and produces the sequence of sounds that correspond to those letters in an attempt to vocalize the word
Explain how the Turing test is preformed
A human interrogator sits in a room and uses a computer to communicate with two respondents: One is a computer and one is a human. After holding conversations with both; the interrogator must decide which is the computer.
How does a human train a voice recognition system
A human trains a voice-recognition system by speaking a word several times so the computer gets an average voiceprint for a word
Define a rule based system
A software system based on a set of if-then rules
Define an expert system
A software system based on the knowledge of human experts
List and describe two methods to a search tree
Depth-First approach Searching down the paths of a tree prior to searching across levels Breadth-first approach Searching across levels of a tree prior to searching down specific paths Breadth-first tends to yield the best results
What are 3 problems with voice recognition
Each person's sounds are unique Speech impediments Humans speak in a continuous, flowing manner, stringing words together
List and describe the two types of robots
Fixed robots Seen on assembly lines. Robot stays put and the products move. Its tasks are built into the hardware. Mobile Robots Move about and must interact with their environment. Require the techniques of artificial intelligence.
Describe and define the Turing test. Who created it and how?
In 1950, English mathematician Alan Turing wrote a groundbreaking paper that asked: "Can machines think?" He concluded that we would eventually be able to create a computer that thinks He then asked another question: "How will we know when we've succeeded?" His answer came to be called the turing test
What are the four branches of AI
Knowledge Representation Expert Systems Neural Networks Natural-Language Processing
Describe the two ways we discussed to represent knowledge
Semantic network A knowledge representation technique that represents the relationships among objects Search Trees A structure that represents alternatives in adversarial situations, such as game playing
Define knowledge based system
Software that uses a specific set of information, from which it extracts and processes particular pieces
What are two ways people view artificial intelligence
The future of computing: the evolution of a machine to make it more like a human. An avenue for applying new and different technologies to problem solving.
What is voiceprint
The plot of frequency changes over time representing the sound of human speech
Define a inference engine
The software that processes rules to draw conclusions
What is the definition of artificial intelligence
The study of computer systems that model and apply the intelligence of the human mind.
What is robotics?
The study of robots
Define knowledge representation
The techniques used to represent knowledge so that a computer system can apply it to intelligent problem solving
Describe Chatbots
Various programs, often called chatbots, have been developed to perform conversational interactions between a computer and a person
List and describe the three basic types of language processing
Voice Recognition Recognizing human words Natural-Language comprehension Interpreting human communication Voice synthesis Recreating human speech
Describe Hugh Loebner
n 1991 New York philanthropist Hugh Loebner organized the first formal instance of the Turing Test called the Loebner Prize A grand prize of $100,000 and a solid gold medal will be awarded for the computer whose responses are indistinguishable from a human's So far, the grand prize remains up for grabs
