Questions tagged [human-inspired]

For questions about algorithms/methods used in AI/ML which is inspired by human behavior/brain.

The seeds of modern AI were planted by classical philosophers who attempted to describe the process of human thinking as the mechanical manipulation of symbols. This work culminated in the invention of the programmable digital computer in the 1940s, a machine based on the abstract essence of mathematical reasoning. This device and the ideas behind it inspired a handful of scientists to begin seriously discussing the possibility of building an electronic brain.

Is there any paper, article or book that analyzes the feasibility of acheiving AGI through brain-simulation?

In my understanding, the mind arises from a physical system, the brain. I see that there is a big research under the topic of simulating physical systems efficiently (especially in quantum computing). Hence, in theory, we could achieve AGI by…

Is some kind of dropout used in the human brain?

I've read that ANNs are based on how the human brain works. Now, I am reading about dropout. Is some kind of dropout used in the human brain? Can we say that the ability to forget is some kind of dropout?

Will it ever be possible to construct a neural network that could have the features of human brain?

I have a question. Will we be able to build a neural network that thinks abstractly, has the creativity, feels and is conscious?

Are AI algorithms capable of self-repair?

Do AI algorithms exist which are capable of healing themselves or regenerating a hurt area when they detect so? For example: In humans if a certain part of brain gets hurt or removed, neighbouring parts take up the job. This happens probably because…

What is chaotic behavior and how it is achieved in non-linear regression and artificial networks?

I'm finding it hard to understand the relationship between chaotic behavior, the human brain, and artificial networks. There are a number of explanations on the web, but it would be very helpful if I get a very simple explanation or any references…

The relation between the human face perception and the keyword spotting in speech recognition?

In our brain there is an area, near the fusiform gyrus and the occipital area, to recognize the human face. And in speech recognition, there is a technique named keyword spotting. Then I am wondering 1) if there is an area in our brain for the…

How does one characterize a neural network with threshold-based activation functions?

In an attempt at designing a neural network more closely modeled by the human brain, I wrote code before doing the reading. The neuron I have modeled operates on the following method. Parameters: potential, threshold, activation. [activation] =…

Can we make Object Detection as human eyes+brain do?

I am so much curious about how do we see(with eyes ofc) and detect things and their location so quick. Is the reason that we have huge gigantic network in our brain and we are trained since birth to till now and still training. basically I am…

Machine learning the times tables

One of the first tasks a developing human intelligence performs is learning the times tables. This can be seen as filling a 10x10 matrix (12x12 depending on the local traditions), but this blind learning alone would hardly classify as intelligence…
