Ada: constructing a synthetic organism
نویسندگان
چکیده
Despite immense progress in neuroscience, we remain restricted in our ability to construct autonomous, behaving robots that match the competence of even simple animals. The barriers to the realisation of this goal include lack of knowledge of system integration issues, engineering limitations and the organisational constraints common to many research laboratories. In this paper we describe our approach to addressing these issues by constructing an artificial organism within the framework of the Ada project – a large-scale public exhibit for the Swiss Expo.02 national exhibition.

Live Soundscape Composition Based on Synthetic Emotions
exhibit as an artificial organism, integrating a large number of sensory modalities, and let it interact with visitors using a multitude of effector systems. Ada used a language of sound and light to communicate its moods, emotions, and behaviors. Here we describe the mechanisms behind Ada's sound communication, its real-time performance, and its interpretation by human subjects.
متن کاملThe ESA Ravenscar Benchmark
This article presents ERB, the ESA Ravenscar Benchmark. ERB aims at providing a synthetic benchmark comparing the efficiency of various Ada Ravenscar implementations and the RTEMS C implementation featuring the native threading model. ERB is original compared to existing Ada benchmarks, such as the ACES or the PIWG, not only because it is the first Ada Ravenscar benchmark, but also because it p...
متن کاملSimultaneous determination of the binding of amantadine and its analogues to synthetic melanin by liquid chromatography after precolumn derivatization with dansyl chloride.
For the determination of amantadine (1-ADA), 2-adamantanamine (2-ADA), memantine (MEM), and rimantadine (RIM) in melanin binding studies, the simultaneous determination of 1-ADA or 2-ADA, MEM, and RIM is investigated by high-performance liquid chromatographic assay with dansyl chloride as a fluorescent derivative reagent. Dansyl derivatives with fluorescent intensity are detected at an excitati...
متن کاملData Dependency Graphs for Ada Programs
We present a novel compositional method of constructing data dependency graphs for Ada programs. These graphs are useful in a program development environment for analyzing data dependencies and tracking information flow within a program. Graphs for primitive program statements are combined together to form graphs for larger program units. Composition rules are described for iteration, recursion...
متن کاملada: An R Package for Stochastic Boosting
Boosting is an iterative algorithm that combines simple classification rules with ‘mediocre’ performance in terms of misclassification error rate to produce a highly accurate classification rule. Stochastic gradient boosting provides an enhancement which incorporates a random mechanism at each boosting step showing an improvement in performance and speed in generating the ensemble. ada is an R ...
