INTELLIGENCE

2. What is Artificial Intelligence?
The development of computer systems to be able to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making.
Ability of a machine to simulate human intelligence

3. The AI field is interdisciplinary, in which a number of sciences and professions converge, including COMPUTERSCIENCE, MATHEMATICS, PSYCHOLOGY, LINGUISTICS, PHILOSOPHY and NEUROSCIENCE, as well as other specialized fields such as  ARTIFICIAL PSYCHOLOGY.

7. THE 7 ASPECTS OF AI Simulating higher functions of the human brain
Programming a computer to use general language
Arranging hypothetical neurons in a manner so that they can form concepts
A way to determine and measure problem complexity
Self-improvement
Abstractions : quality of dealing with ideas rather than events
Randomness and creativity

8. GOALS OF AI
To Create Expert Systems − The systems which exhibit intelligent behavior, learn, demonstrate, explain, and advice its users.
To Implement Human Intelligence in Machines − Creating systems that understand, think, learn, and behave like humans.

9. Programming Without AI
Programming With AI
A computer program without AI can answer the specific questions it is meant to solve.
A computer program with AI can answer the generic questions it is meant to solve.
Modification in the program leads to change in its structure.
AI programs can absorb new modifications by putting highly independent pieces of information together. Hence you can modify even a minute piece of information of program without affecting its structure.
Modification is not quick and easy. It may lead to affecting the program adversely.
Quick and Easy program modification.

10. APPLICATIONS OF AI Hospitals and medicine: -
A medical clinic can use artificial intelligence systems to organize bed schedules, make a staff rotation, and provide medical information
Computer-aided interpretation of medical images. Such systems help scan digital images, e.g. from computed tomography, for typical appearances and to highlight conspicuous sections, such as possible diseases. A typical application is the detection of a tumor.
Heart sound analysis.

11. APPLICATIONS OF AI
Gaming − AI plays crucial role in strategic games such as chess, poker, tic-tac-toe, etc., where machine can think of large number of possible positions based on heuristic knowledge.

12. APPLICATIONS OF AI
Natural Language Processing and speech recognition −
It is possible to interact with the computer that understands natural language spoken by humans.
Some intelligent systems are capable of hearing and comprehending the language in terms of sentences and their meanings while a human talks to it. It can handle different accents, slang words, noise in the background, change in human’s noise due to cold, etc.

13. APPLICATIONS OF AI
Intelligent Robots − Robots are able to perform the tasks given by a human. They have sensors to detect physical data from the real world such as light, heat, temperature, movement, sound, bump, and pressure.
They have efficient processors, multiple sensors and huge memory, to exhibit intelligence. In addition, they are capable of learning from their mistakes and they can adapt to the new environment.
Handwriting Recognition − The handwriting recognition software reads the text written on paper by a pen or on screen by a stylus. It can recognize the shapes of the letters and convert it into editable text.
