A propos de cet article

First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: just a hint of wear to extremities; mildest rubbing. Binding square and secure; text clean. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 231pp. Trade Paperback. The authors discuss the difficulties inherent in programming intuitive skills into an expert system. Examples of programming patterns of light and dark regions on x-rays are illustrated. X-rays can be stored into memory and compared to known diagnostic attributes. With enough experience, you can profile the optimal decision for many groups of related situations. This is a good reference work for explaining practical problems in implementing artificial intelligence algorithms. This is one of the most accessible philosophical critiques of expert systems development. A good read and still relevant. First Ed thus; First Printing indicated.

A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Heburt L. Drefyus discusses and debates the use of computers in education in this book that proves to be “crucial in the development of computer technology” (Terry Winograd, Associate Professor of Computer Science, Stanford University).

Arguing the power of human intuition over the technical strengths of computer technology, Hubert and Stuart Drefyus present a stunning reaffirmation of human intelligence.

A compelling approach to inferiority of binary logic, Mind Over Machine presents a reassuring argument that human intuition and expertise will remain far more valuable than technology develops.
