A new kind of cognitive autonomous robots
April 9th, 2008

European computer scientists have developed a new kind of cognitive robots. In two articles, ICT Results describes how the researchers have combined classical rule-based artificial intelligence and artificial neural networks (ANNs). This learning robot ‘employs ANNs to manage the low-level functions based on the visual input it receives and classical AI to serve as a supervisory mechanism.’ So far, this robot can solve puzzles by itself and other complex tasks with no additional programming. The project has been so successful that the European Union decided to fund 13 additional projects based on these results. But read more…
