Capable of transferring motor skills from one brain to another, they have brought into existence the first shareware for human motor skills. They freely spread this technology, believing it to be a first step towards a new equality and intellectual freedom. But they soon discover that they themselves are part of a much greater and more sinister experiment.Rating: R; for violence, language, some sexuality and drug use.DVD, region 1, NTSC, anamorphic widescreen (2.40:1) presentation, Dolby digital 5.1, Dolby digital 2.0.

From deep learning to rational machines : what the history of philosophy can teach us about the future of artifical intelligence / by Buckner, Cameron J.,author.(CARDINAL)894786;
Includes bibliographic references (pages 349-401) and index."This book provides a framework for thinking about foundational philosophical questions surrounding the use of deep artificial neural networks ("deep learning") to achieve artificial intelligence. Specifically, it link recent breakthroughs to classic works in empiricist philosophy of mind. In recent assessments of deep learning's potential, scientists have cited historical figures from the philosophical debate between nativism and empiricism, which concerns the origins of abstract knowledge. These emiricists were faculty psychologists; that is, they argued that the extraction of abstract knowledge from experience involves the active engagement of psychological faculties such as perception, memory, imagination, attention, and empathy. This book explains how recent deep learning breakthroughs realized some of the most ambitious ideas about these faculties from philosophers such as Aristotle, Ibn Sina (Avicenna), John Locke, David Hume, William James, and Sophie de Grouchy. It illustrates the utility of this interdisciplinary connection by showing how it can provide benefits to both philosophy and computer science: computer scientists can continue to mine the history of philosophy for ideas and aspirational targets to hit, and philosophers can see how some of the historical empricists' most ambitious speculations can now be realized in specific computational systems"--Includes bibliographical references and index.Moderate empiricism and machine learning -- What is deep learning, and how should we evaluate its potential? -- Perception -- Memory -- Imagination -- Attention -- Social and moral cognition.

Includes bibliographical references (volume 1, page 95).v. 1. Research report and design guide -- v. 2. Experimental data.Laboratory report;The objective of this report is to develop and test methodologies for computing energy losses at junction manholes. Laboratory data obtained over a 6-year period at the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA's) Hydraulics Laboratory are analyzed within the framework of three methodologies: the energy grade line, power loss, and neural networks. Descriptions of the methods are presented, along with a statistical analysis comparing the accuracy with which each method computes observed depth in the junction manhole.Sponsored by Office of Engineering and Highway Operations R & D, Federal Highway Administration, and performed by GKY and Associates, under contract no.
