ARTIFICIAL MACHINE + INTELLIGENCE = ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Intelligence: “The capacity to learn and solve problems”

To make it simple – Artificial Intelligence is intelligence exhibited by machines.
The ability to solve problems
The ability to act rationally
The ability to act like humans
It is a branch of computer science which deals with creating computers or machines as intelligent as human
beings.
The term was coined in 1956 by John McCarthy at the Dartmouth conference, Massachusetts
Institute of Technology.

It is a simulation of human intelligence processes such as learning (the acquisition of information

and rules for using the information), reasoning (using the rules to reach approximate or definite
conclusions), and self-correction by machines, especially computer systems.

Nowadays it has become an umbrella term which encompasses everything from robotic process
automation to actual robotics.
 Categories of Artificial Intelligence
Weak Artificial Intelligence
These are the systems designed to perform one particular
job.
Weak AI system includes videos games, like board
games.
These also include personal assistants such as Amazon’s
Alexa or Apple’s Siri. You ask the assistant a question, it
answers it for you.
Strong Artificial Intelligence
These are the systems which perform tasks nearly
human-like.
They are programmed to handle situations in which they
may be required to problem solve without having a
personal intervene.
For e.g. Self-driven automatic cars include Strong
Artificial Intelligence.
 HOW AI HELPS IN DECISION MAKING OF THE
BUSINESS
Large storage of data
Processing and interpreting data easily
Analysis of data through machine learning
Minimization of errors
Quantitative data
Quick decision making since the data is computed and organised
 WAYS THROUGH WHICH AI CAN BE ACHIEVED

• It is a method where the goal is defined and the steps to reach that target are learned by the
Machine Learning machine itself by training (gaining experience)

Natural Language • Natural Language Processing is broadly defined as the automatic manipulation of natural
Processing language, like speech and text, by software.

• It can be said as a field which enables the machines to see. Machine vision captures and
Vision analyses visual information using a camera.

• This area of AI has gathered a lot of attention. The list of vehicles includes cars, buses,
Autonomous Vehicles trucks, trains, ships, submarines, and autopilot flying drones etc.

• It is a field of engineering focused on the design and manufacturing of robots. Robots are
Robotics often used to perform tasks that are difficult for humans to perform or perform consistently.

A robot is… Definition of Robotics
“An active artificial agent whose environment is the physical
world”
--Russell and Norvig

Robotics is a domain in artificial intelligence that deals with the

study of creating intelligence and efficient machines which are
human like

 Effectors
in robotics, an end effector is the
device at the end of a robotic
arm, designed to interact with the
environment

Degree of freedom measure the

efficiency
Four-finger Utah/MIT hand
Sensors

Force/tactile
Temperature/light
Sonar
Visual (camera)
IR Robot with camera
attached
 Architecture
Classical architecture

Reason about behavior of objects

Identify objects
Sensors Actuators

Build maps

Avoid objects
Current Implementation
Industrial robots
used in factories to manufacture
boxes and pack and wrap merchandise
Car manufacturers own 50% of
today’s robots
Robots used in hazardous
situations
Nuclear power plants
Response to bomb threat
Outer space exploration Robotic arm arranging
chocolates
Affective Research: Kismet
Decides proper emotional
response to stimuli and
exhibits corresponding facial
expression, body posture, and
vocal quality
Behavioral response serves
either social or self-
maintenance functions
Kismet smiling
Current Implementation: Asimo

Honda’s Asimo (Advanced Step

in Innovative Mobility)
Able to walk freely (can change
stride speed)
Able to balance on one foot
Able to climb stairs
Able to manipulate objects
Space- & cost-efficient

• Vision
• Mobility
• Design
• Control
• Reasoning
Problems

Sensing
Vision
Cost of tactile sensors
very high Corner recognition
Range Limit Edge recognition
Light – 2 meters Overlap of objects

Problems
Control
Simulation is not accurate to
real world interaction
Based on mathematical and
numerical computations
Reasoning
AI (an essential component
of robotics) has slowly been
introduced into industrial
world
Further refinement in this
field before faster progress
of robotics
 Future of Robotics

• Design robots to recognize presence,

posture, and gaze
• Develop viable social exchange
between robots and humans
• Design systems that can learn via
reinforcement
