Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 9:23 pm Post subject: MindForth Google Code Update 2008 October 4 |
|
|
The artificial Mind that thinks in English by virtue of spreading
activation (q.v.) has just been released on Google Code at
http://code.google.com/p/mindforth/wiki/ForthMindTextFile
and can simply be copied by drag-and-drop into an editor
(i.e., word-processor like MS Wordpad) and saved in the
C:\Win32Forth directory as Mind.F before running the AI.
Please note that MindForth is written expressly for the
W32FOR42_671.zip version of Win32Forth, easily
downloadable for auto-install by clicking on a link in
http://mind.sourceforge.net/mind4th.html or in
http://mentifex.virtualentity.com/mind4th.html --
both of which are older versions of the AI Mind.
http://mind.sourceforge.net/m4thuser.html and
http://mentifex.virtualentity.com/m4thuser.html
are webpages of the MindForth User Manual.
http://www.scn.org/~mentifex/mindforth.txt
is another source of the MindForth text file.
The current AI Mind code has been run through
a JavaScript program that stripped out all its
verbose slash-comments and reduced the
artificial intelligence in size by half to 87K.

Sounds interesting. What is spreading: single symbols
or propositions?

The activation spreads from symbol to symbol
during the formation of propositions.

Which representation do you use for propositions?
I suppose objects with a name property for concepts/frames
like verbs, and a list of property / value pairs for the
slots, right?

No, nothing so formal, and nothing so traditionally AI-esque.
Because MindForth is the software implementation of a
http://mind.sourceforge.net/theory5.html -- theory of
brain-mind function, MindForth starts out fresh with
spreading activation from the analog of neuron-to-neuron
(actually to ganged neuron bundles, redundantly robust).
For the first ten years or so of MindForth (see ACM SIGPLAN
http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/307824.307853 from 1998),
the AI simply let the spikes of activation spread from
noun to verb to object noun in a simple S-V-O format.
Of course, the AI was not debugged enought to think
properly until January of 2008. Therefore, the propositions
were of a factual, subject-verb-object nature. Now
MindForth has broken free from the SVO straightjacket
and thinks by selecting a subject first, and then either
a transitive verb or an intransitive form of "to be". (See
http://mentifex.virtualentity.com/beverb.html and the
updated beVerb module in the Google Code-base.)

No, the Forth AI system has associative tags for
"relations between things." See section 2 of
http://mentifex.virtualentity.com/fp080925.html
on "Machine Reasoning" for the latest plans
on "deriving new from old facts."
By the way, Prof/Dr/Mr/Herr Pimiskern, I wish
to thank you for having a link to Mentifex AI
on your own website starting many years ago.
