Google Tech Talks November 11, 2008 ABSTRACT Berners-Lee's vision of the Semantic Web is hindered by a chicken-and-egg problem, which can be best solved by a bootstrapping method: creating enough structured data to motivate the development of applications. We believe that autonomously `Semantifying Wikipedia' is the best way to bootstrap. We choose Wikipedia as an initial data source, because it is comprehensive, high-quality, modestly sized, and contains enough manually-derived structure to bootstrap an autonomous, self-supervised process. In this talk I will present our success to date in this endeavor: A novel approach for self-supervised learning of CRF information extractors Automatic construction of a comprehensive ontology via statistical-relational learning Vast improvements in extraction recall through shrinkage over this ontology and retraining The stimulation of a virtuous feedback cycle between communal content creation and information extraction We aim to construct a knowledge base of outstanding size to support inference, automatic question answering, faceted browsing, and potentially to bootstrap the Semantic Web. Speaker: Daniel S. Weld Daniel S. Weld is Thomas J. Cable / WRF Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Washington. After formative education at Phillips Academy, he received bachelor's degrees in both Computer Science and Biochemistry at Yale University in 1982. He landed a Ph.D. from the MIT Artificial Intelligence Lab in 1988, received a Presidential Young Investigator's award in 1989, an Office of Naval Research Young Investigator's award in 1990, was named AAAI Fellow in 1999 and deemed ACM Fellow in 2005. Dan is an area editor for the Journal of the ACM, on the editorial board of Artificial Intelligence, was a founding editor and member of the advisory board for the Journal of AI Research, was guest editor for Computational Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence, edited the AAAI report on the Role of Intelligent Systems in the National Information Infrastructure, and was Program Chair for AAAI-96. Dan has published two books and scads of technical papers. Dan is an active entrepreneur with several patents and technology licenses. In May 1996, he co-founded Netbot Incorporated, creator of Jango Shopping Search and later acquired by Excite. In October 1998, Dan co-founded AdRelevance, a revolutionary monitoring service for internet advertising which was acquired by Media Metrix and subsequently by Nielsen NetRatings. In June 1999, Dan co-founded data integration company Nimble Technology which was acquired by the Actuate Corporation. In January 2001, Dan joined the Madrona Venture Group as a Venture Partner and member of the Technical Advisory Board. Intelligence in...

Google Tech Talks November, 8 2007 ABSTRACT This presentation is about a potential shortcut to artificial intelligence by trading mind-design for world-design using artificial evolution. Evolutionary algorithms are a pump for turning CPU cycles into brain designs. With exponentially increasing CPU cycles while our understanding of intelligence is almost a flat-line, the evolutionary route to AI is a centerpiece of most Kurzweilian singularity scenarios. This talk introduces the Polyworld artificial life simulator as well as results from our ongoing attempt to evolve artificial intelligence and further the Singularity. Polyworld is the brain child of Apple Computer Distinguished Scientist Larry Yaeger, who remains the primary developer of Polyworld: http://www.beanblossom.in.us/larryy/Polyworld.html Speaker: Virgil Griffith Virgil Griffith is a first year graduate student in Computation and Neural Systems at the California Institute of Technology. On weekdays he studies evolution, computational neuroscience, and artificial life. He did computer security work until his first year of university when his work got him sued for sedition and espionage. He then decided that security was probably not safest field to be in and he turned his life to science. Polyworld: Using...

Google Tech Talks February, 22 2008 ABSTRACT By using parameterization methods which model the knowledge space of a social or cognitive process, it is possible to use artificial intelligence techniques such as Neural Networks and Genetic Programming to create new types of visualization, creation, search and expression for a range of digital media. Steve DiPaola will discuss and demonstrate his research in cognitive 3D and 2D graphics, AI and simulation work, including real-time voice- and behavior-based 3D facial communication, simulated critters (an interacting group of whales) and creative exploration over optimized search as well as cognitively-based computational photography and music. (See ivizlab.sfu.ca). Speaker: Steve DiPaola Artist and scientist Steve DiPaola is a professor at Simon Frazier University. He directs iVizLab, which strives to make interactive and simulation systems bend more to the human experience by incorporating biological and cognitive models. He came to SFU from Stanford and NYIT CGL and has held leadership positions at Electronic Arts, Saatchi Innovation and Silicon Valley start-ups. His art has been exhibited internationally, at venues including the AIR and Tibor de Nagy galleries in NYC, the Whitney Museum and the Smithsonian. He has collaborated with Nam June Paik and Kraftwerk and is known for making new media tools used equally by artists and scientists. (See dipaola.org). Artificial...

Mark Meadows pursues digital creativity at the intersection of visual art, literature, and computer interactivity. He has worked at Xerox-PARC as Artist-in-Residence, at Stanford Research Institute on Artificial Intelligence start-ups, and has co-founded three companies that develop business plans drawing on artificial intelligence, interactive narrative or virtual reality. His 3D animation and interactive designs have powered works by Lucasfilm, Sony Pictures, and Microsoft. In 2002 he wrote, Pause Effect; The Art of Interactive Narrative. He is now writing a book on Artificial Intelligence, Artificial Emotion, and the roles interactive characters play in emerging forms of narrative. He is also working as creative director on a video game with architect, Frank Gehry, and the band, Radiohead. In this interview, Mark talks about what he has learned by working on these diverse and fascinating projects. He describes the trends he sees emerging and contemplates the most likely futures for the game and AI industries. Mark Meadows:...

First Sarah Palin supports the teaching of religion in public schools (creationism) which John McCain is NOT opposed to. Then she can't name a single newspaper she's ever read. And now she comes out against fruit fly research. Fruit flies are invaluable for all modern research on human diseases. Guess she doesn't want to cure Autism, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, Alzheimer's, Cancer... Oh and let's not forget the hockey mom with a $150,000 wardrobe and Joe the plumber who's a total fraud. The entire McCain campaign is built on lies and fear. They are pro-Jesus and anti-Science, but yet they go to the doctor when they are sick instead of staying home and praying. Why, because they know better and use these simple lies to sway the ignorant masses. Music: Mozart's Requiem Sarah Palin:...

This video illustrates a form of Turing test where the computer tries to fool the human into thinking that the computer itself is human. I have merged the ALICE AI engine with Nicole (Guile3D of Brazil). The ALICE chatterbox engine is available here http://alice.pandorabots.com/ and Nicole (the MS Agent) is available here: http://www.guile3d.com.br/ I am using speech recognition (SAPI 6.1) for data entry and speech recognition (SAPI 4) for speech synthesis. (AT T speech engines and Microsoft speech recognition). The project here builds on early projects where Nicole is used to play music and video, switch houshold appliances, read the news etc. Now you can hold a conversation of sorts. It can at time be amusing...Imagine what will happen in 20 years time? Dr Tom Moir School of Engineering and Advanced Technology (SEAT) Massey University at Auckland New Zealand ALICE Artificial...
