The field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), from its very beginnings in the 1950s, has been criticized for its name, as well as its ambition. Most of the debate concerns the possibility of artificial intelligence, and presumes there is indeed some thing which is intelligence; the only question has been whether or not artificial systems can be built which exhibit, or have, this thing. That is, th...

Recent advances in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in general have advances this field in realizing the vision of a more humanoid interactive system with embodied conversation agent (ECA). This paper presented our development of the ECA called Artificial Intelligent Natural-language Identity or AINI. In this paper, we also present and discuss the use of such E...

The junction of AI and computer security is an area of increasing concern, due to the imminent application of AI to fielded systems. Two new areas of research need are identified: artificial intelligence techniques in the development of secure systems and in analyzing the security characteristics of software; and verification of the security of artificial intelligence. Current and proposed rese...

This paper is based on a panel discussion held at the Artificial Intelligence in Medicine Europe (AIME) conference in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in July 2007. It had been more than 15 years since Edward Shortliffe gave a talk at AIME in which he characterized artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine as being in its "adolescence" (Shortliffe EH. The adolescence of AI in medicine: will the field...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the younger field in computer science ready to accept challenges. Software engineering (SE) is the dominating industrial field. So, automating SE is the most relevant challenge today. AI has the capacity to empower SE in that way. Here in this paper we present a state of the art literature review which reveals the past and present work done for automating Softwar...

The goal of having computers automatically solve problems is central to artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the broad area encompassed by what Turing called ‘machine intelligence’ [384]. Machine learning pioneer Arthur Samuel, in his 1983 talk entitled ‘AI: Where It Has Been and Where It Is Going’ [337], stated that the main goal of the fields of machine learning and artificial intel...

azine that we hope will keep AAAI members informed about AI efforts around the world. The Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence now serves a global audience, and our members, meeting participants, councilors, and officers reside in countries throughout the world. Worldwide AI is designed to meet our expanded audience’s interests. In the columns that will appear in this and ...

Real Time Strategy (RTS) games provide complex domain to test the latest artificial intelligence (AI) research. In much of the literature, AI systems have been limited to playing one game. Although, this specialization has resulted in stronger AI gaming systems it does not address the key concerns of AI researcher. AI researchers seek the development of AI agents that can autonomously interpret...
