Artificial intelligence in engineering: Personal reflections

چکیده

The field of artificial intelligence (AI), as we understand it now, got its impetus during a two-month workshop organized by John McCarthy (Stanford University), one of the founding fathers of AI, in Dartmouth in the summer of 1956. The term Artificial Intelligence was coined at this workshop. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), IBM, Princeton, Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) were well represented. Allen Newell and Herbert Simon from CMU showed a prototype of a program that emulated certain aspects of logical decision making. This generated considerable interest and hope for the future.

Artificial intelligence and other approaches to speech understanding: reflections on methodology

This paper characterizes the methodology of Artificial Intelligence by looking at research in speech understanding, a field where AI approaches contrast starkly with the alternatives, particularly engineering approaches. Four values of AI stand out as influential: ambitious goals, introspective plausibility, computational elegance, and wide significance. The paper also discusses the utility and...

Artificial Intelligence Based Approach for Identification of Current Transformer Saturation from Faults in Power Transformers

Protection systems have vital role in network reliability in short circuit mode and proper operating for relays. Current transformer often in transient and saturation under short circuit mode causes mal-operation of relays which will have undesirable effects. Therefore, proper and quick identification of Current transformer saturation is so important. In this paper, an Artificial Neural Network...
