Global competition and rapidly changing customer requirements are demanding increasing changes in manufacturing environments. Enterprises are required to constantly redesign their products and continuously reconfigure their manufacturing systems. Traditional approaches to manufacturing systems do not fully satisfy this new situation. Many authors have proposed that artificial intelligence will ...

This book contains materials that come out of the Artificial General Intelligence Research Institute (AGIRI) Workshop, held in May 20-21, 2006 at Washington DC. The theme of the workshop is “Transitioning from Narrow AI to Artificial General Intelligence.” In this introductory chapter, we will clarify the notion of “Artificial General Intelligence”, briefly survey the past and present situation...

Framing strongly influences actions among technology proponents and end-users. Underlying much debate about artificial intelligence (AI) are several fundamental shortcomings in its framing. First, discussion of AI is atheoretical, and therefore has limited potential for addressing the complexity of causation. Second, intelligence is considered from an anthropocentric perspective that sees human...

In this study , after a new Artificial Intelligence technique inspired from the human immune system –the Artificial Immune System (AIS) is described, it is compared with the Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and some immune approaches in neural networks are emphasized as application. After the artificial intelligence (AI) has come into existence, especially artificial neural networks took a gre...

This paper presents a new perspective of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Although, number of attempts has been made to make an artifact intelligent, including evolution theory, neural network etc and a number of problems have been solved using these concepts but each of this theory covers only some aspect of human intelligence. Still there is a large gap between artificial intelligence agent and ...

intelligence and of law have met and have merged into the interdisciplinary research field of artificial intelligence and law. Both fields use formal methods, with their strengths and limitations; in AI there are software, logic, and statistics, in law there are statutes, procedures, and institutions. Both fields are creative; in AI, systems are built, experiments designed, and paradigms replac...

Software engineering and artificial intelligence is the two field of the computer science. During the last decades, the disciplines of Artificial Intelligence and Software Engineering have developed separately without the much exchange of research outcomes. However, both fields of computer science have different characteristics, benefits and limitations. This statement opens many possibilities ...

The use of artificial intelligence gives new height for human being in today’s world. The different artificial intelligence techniques give rise to important application areas where human processing ability weakens. Nowadays the security is important key concern for every nation. Use of different AI techniques in security management protects against the security attacks/threads by warning the u...
