Assessing the Foundations of Conscious Computing: A Bayesian Exercise

نویسنده

  • Eric Horvitz
چکیده

Questions have long been posed with about whether we might one day be able to create systems that experience subjective states similar to those experienced by people. The challenge of understanding and explaining conscious experience extends well beyond discussions among philosophers. Many people, including AI scientists pursuing principles of automated reasoning and decision making, and neurobiologists and psychologists with interests in nervous systems and cognition reflect about the nature of subjective states.

Bayesian Sample Size Computing for Estimation of Binomial Proportions using p-tolerance with the Lowest Posterior Loss

This paper is devoted to computing the sample size of binomial distribution with Bayesian approach. The quadratic loss function is considered and three criterions are applied to obtain p-tolerance regions with the lowest posterior loss. These criterions are: average length, average coverage and worst outcome.

DisTriB: Distributed Trust Management Model Based on Gossip Learning and Bayesian Networks in Collaborative Computing Systems

The interactions among peers in Peer-to-Peer systems as a distributed collaborative system are based on asynchronous and unreliable communications. Trust is an essential and facilitating component in these interactions specially in such uncertain environments. Various attacks are possible due to large-scale nature and openness of these systems that affects the trust. Peers has not enough inform...

A BAYESIAN APPROACH TO COMPUTING MISSING REGRESSOR VALUES

In this article, Lindley's measure of average information is used to measure the information contained in incomplete observations on the vector of unknown regression coefficients [9]. This measure of information may be used to compute the missing regressor values.

Bayesian Analysis of Survival Data with Spatial Correlation

Often in practice the data on the mortality of a living unit correlation is due to the location of the observations in the study‎. ‎One of the most important issues in the analysis of survival data with spatial dependence‎, ‎is estimation of the parameters and prediction of the unknown values in known sites based on observations vector‎. ‎In this paper to analyze this type of survival‎, ‎Cox...
