Robotics
Serving Humanity..
A Short History..
Programmable devices Repeating machines
Micro processor controlled
AI
Enhancing Robotics..
Intelligence..
Natural Vs Artificial
A I
Can Machines be made intelligent..??
Vs
Can we build hardware as complicated as the brain..??
A I
Human Brain
Neuron 1012 neurons
A Complex computer
Transistor >108 transistors
1014 synapses
1 ms cycle time
1012 bits of RAM
1 ns cycle time
Conclusion:
YES: in the near future But building hardware is different from making it behave like brain
AI involves...
Ability to interact with the real world Reasoning Planning Learning
A I
Adaptation
Can Computers recognize speech..??
Difficulties:
A I
Mapping sounds into a list of words Large vocabularies Accents Background noise
Can Computers recognize speech..??
Difficulties:
E.g.
A I
1. Johns car has a flat tire. 2. Dessert vs. Desert
Conclusion:
NO, normal speech is too complex to accurately recognize YES, for restricted problems (small vocabulary, single speaker)
Can Computers SEE..??
Difficulties:
Mapping a 2d image to 3d map Visual Recognition E.g.
A I
Conclusion:
NO: computers can only see objects YES for certain constrained problems (e.g., face recognition
Can Computers learn & Adapt..??
YES, computers can learn and adapt
A I
Difficulties:
Memory Capacity
Combinatorial Explosion
Can Computers plan & make optimal decisions..??
Difficulties:
A I
Common sense The world is not predictable E.g. Booking a holiday ticket to Singapore
Conclusion:
NO, not todays computers
Computing AI..
