ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: A HUMAN CENTRIC SIMULATION OF SOFTWARE CODED HEURISTICS

Artificial intelligence: A Human Centric Simulation of Software coded heuristics is a comprehensive discourse on the fundamental principles and concepts that lead to building Artificially intelligent programs. It details the wide range of possible application areas where artificial intelligence can be used. The concepts of heuristic search and development of meta-heuristic algorithms has led a far way towards the development of computational intelligence algorithms and nature inspired algorithms that have been used in a variety of problem solving methods. Topics covered include: how intelligence can be defined, whether machines can think 0f sensory input in machine systems, the nature of consciousness, the controversial culturing of human neurons etc. Exploring issues at the heart of the subject, this book is suitable for anyone interested in AI, and provides an illuminating and accessible introduction to this fascinating subject.
