Artificial intelligence – Machine Learning, Robotics, Algorithms

Artificial intelligence – Machine Learning, Robotics, Algorithms: AI research follows two distinct, and to some extent competing, methods, the symbolic (or “top-down”) approach and the connectionist (or “bottom-up”) approach. The top-down approach seeks to replicate intelligence by analyzing cognition independent of the biological structure of the brain, in terms of the processing of symbols—whence the symbolic label. The bottom-up approach, on the other hand, involves creating artificial neural networks in imitation of the brain’s structure—whence the connectionist label. To illustrate the difference between these approaches, consider the task of building a system, equipped with an optical scanner, that recognizes the letters of the alphabet. A bottom-up approach
