Synopsis

Computers and Thought showcases the work of the scientists who not onlydefined the field of Artificial Intelligence, but who are responsible for havingdeveloped it into what it is today. Originally published in 1963, this collectionincludes twenty classic papers by such pioneers as A. M. Turing and Marvin Minskywho were behind the pivotal advances in artificially simulating human thoughtprocesses with computers.Among the now hard-to-find articles are reports of computerprograms that play chess and checkers, prove theorems in logic and geometry, solveproblems in calculus, balance assembly lines, recognize visual temporal patterns, and communicate in natural language. The reports of simulation of cognitiveprocesses include computer models of human behavior in logic problems, deciding oncommon stock portfolios, and carrying out social interaction. Models of verballearning behavior, predictive behavior in two-choice experiments, and conceptformation are also included.Articles by: Paul Armer. Carol Chomsky. Geoffrey P. E.Clarkson. Edward A.
