Synopsis

The purpose of "Artificial Intelligence Techniques: A Comprehensive Cata­ logue" is to promote interaction between members of the AI community. It does this by announcing the existence of AI techniques, and acting as a pointer into the literature. Thus the AI community has access to a common, extensional definition of the field, which promotes a common terminology, discourages the reinvention of wheels, and acts as a clearing house for ideas and algorithms. I am grateful to the impressive group of AI experts who have contributed the many descriptions of AI techniques which go to make up this Catalogue. They have managed to distill a very wide knowledge of AI into a very compact form. The Catalogue is a reference work providing a quick guide to the AI tech­ niques available for different tasks. Intentionally, it only provides a brief de­ scription of each technique, with no extended discussion of its historical origin or how it has been used in particular AI programs.

About this title

Synopsis

The aim of this work is to promote interaction between members of the AI community by announcing AI techniques available for different jobs, and by acting as a pointer into the literature. Thus the AI community should have access to a common, extensional definition of the field, promoting a common terminology, discouraging the re-invention of wheels and acting as a clearing house for new ideas and algorithms. The text also aims to assist in the maturation of the field by identifying techniques and clarifying the field's terminology.
