Artificial Intelligence in the Context of Human Consciousness
Artificial intelligence (AI) can be defined as the ability of a machine to learn and make decisions based on acquired information. AI’s development has incited rampant public speculation regarding the singularity theory: a futuristic phase in which intelligent machines are capable of creating increasingly intelligent systems. Its implications, combined with the close relationship between humanity and their machines, make achieving understanding both natural and artificial intelligence imperative. Researchers are continuing to discover natural processes responsible for essential human skills like decision-making, understanding language, and performing multiple processes simultaneously. Artificial intelligence attempts to simulate these functions through techniques like artificial neural networks, Markov Decision Processes, Human Language Technology, and Multi-Agent Systems, which rely upon a combination of mathematical models and hardware
Deep representation learning: Fundamentals, Perspectives, Applications, and Open Challenges
Machine Learning algorithms have had a profound impact on the field of
computer science over the past few decades. These algorithms performance is
greatly influenced by the representations that are derived from the data in the
learning process. The representations learned in a successful learning process
should be concise, discrete, meaningful, and able to be applied across a
variety of tasks. A recent effort has been directed toward developing Deep
Learning models, which have proven to be particularly effective at capturing
high-dimensional, non-linear, and multi-modal characteristics. In this work, we
discuss the principles and developments that have been made in the process of
learning representations, and converting them into desirable applications. In
addition, for each framework or model, the key issues and open challenges, as
well as the advantages, are examined
