Computation and Intelligence: Collected Readings (Paperback, New)

"Computation and Intelligence" brings together readings in artificial intelligence that are particularly relevant to today's student/practitioner. With its critique of the selections, extensive bibliography, and clear presentation of the material, "Computation and Intelligence" should be a useful adjunct to any course in AI as well as a handy reference for professionals in the field.;The book is divided into five parts, each reflecting the stages of development of AI. The first part, "Foundations", contains readings that present or discuss foundational ideas linking computation and intelligence, typified by A.M. Turing's "Computing Machinery and Intelligence". The second part, "Knowledge Representation", presents a sampling of numerous representational schemes by Newell, Minsky, Collins & Quillian, Winograd, Schank, Hayes, Holland, McClelland, Rumelhart, Hinton and Brooks.;The third part, "Weak Method Problem Solving" focuses on the research and design of syntax-based problem solvers, incuding the most famous of these the Logic Theorist and GPS. The fourth part, "Reasoning in Complex and Dynamic Environments", presents a broad spectrum of the AI community's resarch in knowledge-intensive problem solving, from McCarthy's early design of systems with "common sense" to model-based reasoning.;The two concluding sections, by Marvin Minsky and by Herbert Simon respectively, present the recent thoughts of two of AI's pioneers who revisit the concepts and controversies that have developed during the evolution of the tools and techniques that make up the current practice of Artificial Intelligence.
