Hello everybody, hello mohan gupta,

I would suggest to get the following book from S. Russell and P.
Norvig:

It is very comprehensive and covers a variety of AI-related topics. We
use it here in Bielefeld, Germany, as basis for our courses on AI at
University.

Urgent Help Needed: The EPVH-1.1 Visual Hull Library.
Dear All,
I am a student doing research in computer vision. The EPVH-1.1 Visual
Hull Library will really help a lot in my research.
I did have this library before but I didn't keep my copy of this
library because I always thought I could download it again form

Hey Tedd, Interesting points.
First i would like to say nice vision on the whiole 3D SL theory. I'm
not the greatest fan of it but interesting! I saw a video (from the
BBC) not to long ago that talked about time travel and basically they
talked about how the future can evolve with such worlds and we can

Hi
Thanks for sharing.
This is a fun topic to play around with.
Reading over the past few postings, got some input/thoughts... :)
First of all about the moral dilemma surrounding the question "is artificial
intelligence real life?" and where the limits are.
I'd say - yes absolutely. Limits are at the same place as with biological

The Chinese Box is a rejoinder to the Turing test and is an argument
against the strong AI implication that a machine passing the Turing
test is itself intelligent.
Adding a layer does not mean it's an afterthought. The cerebral cortex
is an added layer to the brain that is thought to play a key role in

Talking to a computer through a console... Ever heard of the turing test? A
very interesting read. There is no way of knowing whether a response came
from a computer of a human.
If you think Chess is cool, wait until you learn about GO! There are about 5
rules to the game of GO. You become an expert by studying your entire life.

Interesting thoughts, thanks for sharing.
Just a note - while this group is infrequently posted to, it is serving
its initial purpose as a repository for interesting ideas on this
topic. High signal to noise ratio is good.
My thoughts on emotion are less that we should be developing robots
with emotion than we should be using what we learn about emotions to

Hello,
I just joined this group so please forgive me if I repeat something
that already been said. (this is more of a stream of thoughts than an
actual message)
There are 4 reasons for

short-cut time-wasting rational thought and react immediately to a

Re: [Artificial Emotion] Conflict between precision and emotion

2006-11-16T07:37:55Z

I really fail to see your point, well, other than distinguishing the line
between robot and something else. Regardless, emotions are really the root
of very few human mistakes, that is, as you said, intuition, a very
different animal all together from most definitions of emotion. Intuition
is merely an extension of the one thing our brains do well, patern

Re: Conflict between precision and emotion

Our feelings record how well we achieve the goals which we feel to be
important in our lives. So the atmosphere of a thing tells whther it is
a good way to reach our goals or not. That's why intuition is worth
trusting: it is objective information about the likelihood of reaching
our goals that way.

Conflict between precision and emotion

2006-09-29T13:16:10Z

According to me, the more the emotions the less will be the precision.
Emotions = K/precision ; 'K' is a constant
Therefore, robots with emotions are 'robots' no more; as they will
behave quite like humans. They will *believe* in intiutions and make
mistakes. Mistakes which they would'nt do, if they knew they were
