Report on the Eighth Ireland Conference on AI and Cognitive Science

AI Magazine

It is a northern European city of 100,000, almost on the border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. The local press (The Derry Journal north Derry coast, with beautiful meetings enjoyed themselves and & Belfast Telegraph) and radio (BBC beaches at Benone and Castlenock expressed their congratulations on Northern Ireland) ran a number of and then through Coleraine to the the program and organization. Also, articles leading up to and during the seaside resorts of Portstewart and for the first time, AICS attracted a conference. All plenary invited speaker Portrush. A few kilometers further large number of delegates and papers talks and the panel session went out along the north Antrim coast, we from abroad, including many from on streaming video and audio, stored arrive at the Giants' Causeway and the United Kingdom, Europe, and Sauce!); Gweedore, home of the Clannad and live with the possibility of phonein for Pattern Recognition (IAPR), the More details on all the data mining and knowledge discovery, the CSSI, was run as "MIND-II: Computational events are available at www.infm.ulst.

Knowledge Engineering Laboratory (see Dennett's Joycean Okada focused on a similar theme to (NIKEL), a joint venture with machine), Claude Shannon Von Hahn with his paper " US, 1956) we have been generation system for integrating into artificial intelligence.


AI Approaches to Fraud Detection and Risk Management

AI Magazine

A false negative means that fraud, bad credit, or intrusion passes unnoticed, with potential loss of revenue or security. This workshop focused primarily papers, 10 of which were selected for with the Fourteenth National on what might loosely be termed presentation at the workshop. These Conference on Artificial Intelligence "improper behavior," which includes 10 papers were grouped into 3 categories. However, Glasgow applying classification techniques to were over 50 attendees, with a balanced does discuss the estimation of "inherent fraud and risk problems, including the mix of university and industry risk," which is the bread and butter use of clustering techniques to generate researchers. We sought participants data, highly skewed distributions ("improper Columbia University, and Phillip Chan to discuss and explore common behavior" occurs far less frequently of Florida Institute of Technology).



Computational Cognitive Modeling, the Source of Power, and Other Related Issues

AI Magazine

In computational cognitive modeling, we hypothesize internal mental processes of human cognitive activities and express such activities by computer programs. Such computational models often consist of many components and aspects. Claims are often made that certain aspects play a key role in modeling, but such claims are sometimes not well justified or explored. In this article, we first review some fundamental distinctions and issues in computational modeling. We then discuss, in principle, systematic ways of identifying the source of power in models.




An Overview of Empirical Natural Language Processing

AI Magazine

In recent years, there has been a resurgence in research on empirical methods in natural language processing. These methods employ learning techniques to automatically extract linguistic knowledge from natural language corpora rather than require the system developer to manually encode the requisite knowledge. This article presents an introduction to the series of specialized articles on these topics and attempts to describe and explain the growing interest in using learning methods to aid the development of natural language processing systems.


An Overview of Empirical Natural Language Processing

AI Magazine

In recent years, there has been a resurgence in research on empirical methods in natural language processing. These methods employ learning techniques to automatically extract linguistic knowledge from natural language corpora rather than require the system developer to manually encode the requisite knowledge. The current special issue reviews recent research in empirical methods in speech recognition, syntactic parsing, semantic processing, information extraction, and machine translation. This article presents an introduction to the series of specialized articles on these topics and attempts to describe and explain the growing interest in using learning methods to aid the development of natural language processing systems.
