Alternative Paths to Intelligent Systems
This paper examines the three prevalent approaches to Artificial Intelligence (AI), namely symbolic reasoning systems, connectionist systems, and emergent systems based on the principles of the subsumption theory. Distinguished by their top-down and bottomup mechanisms all three approaches have strengths and weaknesses. While the logical reasoning approach is precise and well supported by mathe...
متن کاملAlternative Splicing of FOXP3—Virtue and Vice
FOXP3 is the lineage-defining transcription factor of CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells. While many aspects of its regulation, interaction, and function are conserved among species, alternatively spliced FOXP3 isoforms are expressed only in human cells. This review summarizes current knowledge about alternative splicing of FOXP3 and the specific functions of FOXP3 isoforms in health and disease. Fu...
متن کاملLearning Abstract Relations Through Analogy to Concrete Exemplars
We present a model that bridges work in analogy and category learning. The model, Building Relations through Instance Driven Gradient Error Shifting (BRIDGES), extends ALCOVE, an exemplar-based connectionist model of category learning (Kruschke, 1992). Unlike ALCOVE which is limited to featural or spatial representations, BRIDGES can appreciate analogical relationships between stimuli and store...
متن کاملMeet-U: Educating through research immersion
We present a new educational initiative called Meet-U that aims to train students for collaborative work in computational biology and to bridge the gap between education and research. Meet-U mimics the setup of collaborative research projects and takes advantage of the most popular tools for collaborative work and of cloud computing. Students are grouped in teams of 4-5 people and have to reali...
متن کاملA return to virtue.
T he dominant trend in contemporary medical ethics describes ethical behavior in terms of the principles and rules that must be followed to bring it about, most notably nonmaleficence, beneficence, justice, and respect for autonomy. An alternative approach to ethics, virtue ethics, emphasizes not principles and rules, but rather the virtues, or characteristics, whose exercise will bring about e...
