Book Foundation  Architecture  and Prototyping of Humanized AI

Download or read book Foundation Architecture and Prototyping of Humanized AI written by Mark Chang and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-08-08 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanized AI (HAI), emerging as the next of the AI waves, refers to artificial social beings that are very close to humans in various aspects, beings who are machine-race humans, not digital slaves. Foundation, Architecture, and Prototyping of HAI deploy a novel smalldata approach to vertically explore the spectrum of HAI. Different from the popular big-data philosophy that is based on the rigid notion that the connotation of each concept is fixed and the same to everyone, this book treats understanding as a process from simple to complex, and uses the similarity principle to effectively deal with novelties. Combining the efficiency of the Behaviorists’ goal-driven approach and the flexibility of a Constructivists’ approach, both the architecture of HAI and the philosophical discussions arising from it are elaborated upon. Advancing a unique approach to the concept of HAI, this book appeals to professors and students of both AI and philosophy, as well as industry professionals looking to stay at the forefront of developments within the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The remarkable progress in algorithms for machine and deep learning have opened the doors to new opportunities, and some dark possibilities. However, a bright future awaits those who build on their working methods by including HCAI strategies of design and testing. As many technology companies and thought leaders have argued, the goal is not to replace people, but to empower them by making design choices that give humans control over technology. In Human-Centered AI, Professor Ben Shneiderman offers an optimistic realist's guide to how artificial intelligence can be used to augment and enhance humans' lives. This project bridges the gap between ethical considerations and practical realities to offer a road map for successful, reliable systems. Digital cameras, communications services, and navigation apps are just the beginning. Shneiderman shows how future applications will support health and wellness, improve education, accelerate business, and connect people in reliable, safe, and trustworthy ways that respect human values, rights, justice, and dignity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 11 contributions, theorists historically associated with each position identify the basic tenets of their position.Have the classical methods and ideas of AI outlived their usefulness? Foundations of Artificial Intelligence critically evaluates the fundamental assumptions underpinning the dominant approaches to AI. In the 11 contributions, theorists historically associated with each position identify the basic tenets of their position. They discuss the underlying principles, describe the natural types of problems and tasks in which their approach succeeds, explain where its power comes from, and what its scope and limits are. Theorists generally skeptical of these positions evaluate the effectiveness of the method or approach and explain why it works - to the extent they believe it does - and why it eventually fails.ContentsFoundations of AI: The Big Issues, D.

Book Explainable AI and User Experience  Prototyping and Evaluating an UX Optimized XAI Interface in Computer Vision

Download or read book Explainable AI and User Experience Prototyping and Evaluating an UX Optimized XAI Interface in Computer Vision written by Georg Dedikov and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2023-05-16 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Computer Science - SEO, Search Engine Optimization, grade: 1,0, University of Regensburg (Professur für Wirtschaftsinformatik, insb. Internet Business & Digitale Soziale Medien), language: English, abstract: This thesis presents a toolkit of 17 user experience (UX) principles, which are categorized according to their relevance towards Explainable AI (XAI). The goal of Explainable AI has been widely associated in literature with dimensions of comprehensibility, usefulness, trust, and acceptance. Moreover, authors in academia postulate that research should rather focus on the development of holistic explanation interfaces instead of single visual explanations. Consequently, the focus of XAI research should be more on potential users and their needs, rather than purely technical aspects of XAI methods. Considering these three impediments, the author of this thesis derives the assumption to bring valuable insights from the research area of User Interface (UI) and User Experience design into XAI research. Basically, UX is concerned with the design and evaluation of pragmatic and hedonic aspects of a user’s interaction with a system in some context. These principles are taken into account in the subsequent prototyping of a custom XAI system called Brain Tumor Assistant (BTA). Here, a pre-trained EfficientNetB0 is used as a Convolutional Neural Network that can divide x-ray images of a human brain into four classes with an overall accuracy of 98%. To generate factual explanations, Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations are subsequently applied as an XAI method. The following evaluation of the BTA is based on the so-called User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ) according to Laugwitz et al. (2008), whereby single items of the questionnaire are adapted to the specific context of XAI. Quantitative data from a study with 50 participants in each control and treatment group is used to present a standardized way of quantifying the dimensions of Usability and UX specifically for XAI systems. Furthermore, through an A/B test, evidence is presented that visual explanations have a significant (α=0.05) positive effect on the dimensions of attractiveness, usefulness, controllability, and trustworthiness. In summary, this thesis proves that explanations in computer vision not only have a significantly positive effect on trustworthiness, but also on other dimensions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume tackles a quickly-evolving field of inquiry, mapping the existing discourse as part of a general attempt to place current developments in historical context; at the same time, breaking new ground in taking on novel subjects and pursuing fresh approaches. The term "A.I." is used to refer to a broad range of phenomena, from machine learning and data mining to artificial general intelligence. The recent advent of more sophisticated AI systems, which function with partial or full autonomy and are capable of tasks which require learning and 'intelligence', presents difficult ethical questions, and has drawn concerns from many quarters about individual and societal welfare, democratic decision-making, moral agency, and the prevention of harm. This work ranges from explorations of normative constraints on specific applications of machine learning algorithms today-in everyday medical practice, for instance-to reflections on the (potential) status of AI as a form of consciousness with attendant rights and duties and, more generally still, on the conceptual terms and frameworks necessarily to understand tasks requiring intelligence, whether "human" or "A.I."

Book Innovations in Applied Artificial Intelligence

Download or read book Innovations in Applied Artificial Intelligence written by Bob Orchard and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-04-22 with total page 1293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Intelligent systems must perform in order to be in demand. ” Intelligent systems technology is being applied steadily in solving many day-to-day problems. Each year the list of real-world deployed applications that inconspicuously host the results of research in the area grows considerably. These applications are having a significant impact in industrial operations, in financial circles, in transportation, in education, in medicine, in consumer products, in games and elsewhere. A set of selected papers presented at the seventeenth in the series of conferences on Industrial and Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems (IEA/AIE 2004), sponsored by the International Society of Applied Intelligence, is offered in this manuscript. These papers highlight novel applications of the technology and show how new research could lead to new and innovative applications. We hope that you find these papers to be educational, useful in your own research, and stimulating. In addition, we have introduced some special sessions to emphasize a few areas of artificial intelligence (AI) that are either relatively new, have received considerable attention recently or perhaps have not yet been represented well. To this end, we have included special sessions on e-learning, bioinformatics, and human-robot interaction (HRI) to complement the usual offerings in areas such as data mining, machine learning, intelligent systems, neural networks, genetic algorithms, autonomous agents, natural language processing, intelligent user interfaces, evolutionary computing, fuzzy logic, computer vision and image processing, reasoning, heuristic search, security, Internet applications, constraint satisfaction problems, design, and expert systems.

Book The Artist in the Machine

Download or read book The Artist in the Machine written by Arthur I. Miller and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An authority on creativity introduces us to AI-powered computers that are creating art, literature, and music that may well surpass the creations of humans. Today's computers are composing music that sounds “more Bach than Bach,” turning photographs into paintings in the style of Van Gogh's Starry Night, and even writing screenplays. But are computers truly creative—or are they merely tools to be used by musicians, artists, and writers? In this book, Arthur I. Miller takes us on a tour of creativity in the age of machines. Miller, an authority on creativity, identifies the key factors essential to the creative process, from “the need for introspection” to “the ability to discover the key problem.” He talks to people on the cutting edge of artificial intelligence, encountering computers that mimic the brain and machines that have defeated champions in chess, Jeopardy!, and Go. In the central part of the book, Miller explores the riches of computer-created art, introducing us to artists and computer scientists who have, among much else, unleashed an artificial neural network to create a nightmarish, multi-eyed dog-cat; taught AI to imagine; developed a robot that paints; created algorithms for poetry; and produced the world's first computer-composed musical, Beyond the Fence, staged by Android Lloyd Webber and friends. But, Miller writes, in order to be truly creative, machines will need to step into the world. He probes the nature of consciousness and speaks to researchers trying to develop emotions and consciousness in computers. Miller argues that computers can already be as creative as humans—and someday will surpass us. But this is not a dystopian account; Miller celebrates the creative possibilities of artificial intelligence in art, music, and literature.

Key features: In-depth look at modern computing technologies Systems engineering description and means to successfully undertake an AI product or service development through deployment Existing methods for applying machine learning operations (MLOps) AI system architecture including a description of each of the AI pipeline building blocks Challenges and approaches to attend to responsible AI in practice Tools to develop a strategic roadmap and techniques to foster an innovative team environment Multiple use cases that stem from the authors’ MIT classes, as well as from AI practitioners, AI project managers, early-career AI team leaders, technical executives, and entrepreneurs Exercises and Jupyter notebook examples

Book Lloyd   s Register Technical Association 1987 1988

Download or read book Lloyd s Register Technical Association 1987 1988 written by Lloyd's Register Foundation and published by Lloyd's Register . This book was released on 1987-01-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lloyd’s Register Technical Association (LRTA) was established in 1920 with the primary objective of sharing technical expertise and knowledge within Lloyd’s Register. Publications have consistently been released on a yearly basis, with a brief interruption between 1938 and 1946. These publications serve as a key reference point for best practices and were initially reserved for internal use to maximise LR’s competitive advantage. Today, the LRTA takes a fresh approach, focusing on collaboration by combining professional expertise from across LRF & Group to ensure a frequent output of fresh perspectives and relevant content. The LRTA has evolved into a Group-wide initiative that identifies, captures, and shares knowledge spanning various business streams and functions. To support this modern approach, the LRTA has adopted a new structure featuring representatives and senior governance across the business streams and the LR Foundation. The Lloyd's Register Technical Association Papers should be seen as historical documents representing earlier viewpoints and are not reflective of current thinking and perspectives by the current LR Technical Association.
