Will One Small Step for AI Be One Giant Leap for Robotics?

Robot learns to walk by itself using artificial intelligence. Have you ever wondered how human-like a robot can become? Initially, in the learning phase, a tendon-driving robotic limb undergoes a motor babbling phase where the system attempts random control sequences and gathers the associated kinematics. The input-output data from the motor babbling is fed to a multi-layer perceptron artificial neural network (ANN) to train it. In turn, the trained ANN produces an initial output-input (inverse) map based on the system’s dynamics. The ANN of the inverse map from 6D kinematics to a 3D motor control sequences has three layers and twenty-four nodes total. There are six nodes in the input layer, fifteen nodes in the hidden layer, and three nodes in the output layer. The hyperbolic tangent sigmoid transfer function was used to compute a layer’s output from its net input—well suited for neural networks when velocity is a priority over the precise shape of the transfer function...

Neuromorphic Computing: The Next Phase of Artificial Intelligence Technologies

The arms race between competing artificial intelligence technologies will ultimately decide how we address our cyber security challenges. The use of artificial intelligence and machine learning systems is increasing rapidly. ‘ Machine learning ’ describes systems that can learn the correct response simply by analysing lots of sample input data, without having to be explicitly programmed to perform specific tasks. Perhaps the most successful and widespread technique is the use of artificial neural networks (ANNs). ANNs copy the manner in which that neurons work in organic frameworks, for example, the human cerebrum, making a system of interconnected counterfeit neurons. They have demonstrated to be compelling at various errands, particularly those including design acknowledgment, for example, PC vision, discourse acknowledgment or therapeutic determination from side effects or outputs. The most-used tool in the cybercriminal’s toolbox is the DDoS, or distributed deni...
