 WHO
IS PAMELA ?
PAMELA speaks Spanish -
her last name is not Anderson -, but you can bet that sex will be part
of her life (among other personal interests). She will probably
excel in some professional area (may be as a successful on-line sales
woman ?) maintaining her psychological balance through a bit of Zen philosophy
(to prevent her from getting too cynic or alienated in our competitive
world)
She is currently taking a crash course, learning how to behave and
think. I'm her teacher (you can call me Botmaster if you like).
THE
GREAT PICTURE
Intrinsic differences
between Spanish and English lead me to start PAMELA's AIML education from scratch.
My project
relies on a 3 layer model aimed to FORMAT INPUT TEXT - FOCUS ATTENTION ON
CURRENT MATTER - PROVIDE INTELLIGENT ANSWERS, more details as follows :
Layer 1
Format input text : Using srai categories to
simplify syntax to be passed to the next level. The
recursive nature of srais makes them very powerful to filter, replace,
and/or reinterpret patterns to provide a clearer understanding.This level
could be roughly compared to specialized sensors (like our eyes, ears,
etc) feeding its impulses to different areas of the brain in the appropriate
"format".
Layer 2 Basic
social protocol : Includes categories about
PAMELA's personality, how to start basic exchanges involving ME and YOU,
a sense of self, ability to categorize inputs using different
perspectives (i.e. the position of the speaker, does it
relate to being, doing, having, wanting, etc. etc.). The main purpose of this
layer is to handle the beginning of a conversation and perhaps more
important, to detect "breakpoints" to switch attention
(pattern priority) to specific topics dynamically during conversation.
Layer 3
Specialized brain areas : Each "brain
area" could be viewed as a cluster of topics closely interrelated,
or as a brain area having some "inputs" and "outputs". Each
areas includes
srais to further improve the understanding of text in a more
specific context, "reasoning" categories to process the information
"intelligently", and categories storing support knowledge (like
our memory) to assist in building meaningful responses. A key point to
understand, is that all specialized areas have the ability to
communicate with all other areas of the brain sharing and/or combining its resources in a
virtual network with no pre-defined paths.
A heavy use
of "topics" acting as subroutines, allows to switch
attention from the current subject to a new one, prioritizing otherwise
"similar" patterns that could lead to misinterpretation if
matched outside the right context.
