MIT incorporates human intuition in artificial intelligence to help computers plan better – Tech2

MIT researchers have improved award winning automatic planning software by adding in code that mimics human intuition. The strategies used by high performing human planners were converted into a machine readable form, and then encoded into the automatic planning software. Adding human intuition to the planning software saw an increase in performance between 10 to 15 percent on a challenging set of problems. The research was conducted by scientists at Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), which is known for a number of cutting edge artificial intelligence breakthroughs. The results from the finding will be presented at an upcoming conference of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence.
