... information, explaining how information was created and how it might be encoded and compressed. Vannevar Bush's wrote an essay predicting that networks around the world could be linked. For 1945 this was huge stuff, and looked now we have networks linked up the ying-yang.2 Modern artificial intelligence was born in the first half of the 20th century, when the electronic computer ... brain is made up of a series of interconnected cells (neurons). With this information, AI researchers have created artificial neural networks that imitate the brain's structure. Scientists feed these network...

... reflect on new information and relate it to what is already known (4). Leamnson explains, while brain connections are vulnerable to aging, neural networks have the potential to grow more sophisticated as we age, making the brain more responsive. The human brain increases in mass several ... a subconscious level as it is processed by the brain. The mature human brain is comprised of billions of neurons, which interact and create elaborate networks that communicate through neurotransmitters. Neurons that communicate at contact are called synapses (3). "The more times a synapse passes a sig...

... leader in the field of AI is actually not a business, but MIT's Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. It does more ground breaking research in the all fields of AI, including robotics and neural networks, than any other facility in the world. First I will describe the different techniques and fields that fall under AI. The first technique that is used to create intelligent systems is ... being used is bottom-up. That is the arrangement of data into a complex system where all information is connected, like a brain, which is why it is also referred to as a neural network. It is extremely co...

... . A greater understanding of the brain yields much more than scientific discovery. Hope can be given to many people with diseases dealing with the brain. A recent movement towards developing advanced artificial neural networks (computer processing structures modeled from the human brain) promises, more proficient, and efficient machines. Most appealing to me, however, is the unknown. Resources are not as readily available as in ... ...
