Design Methodology and Goals
- Engineering Goal: Develop concepts, theory and practice of building intelligent
machines
- Science Goal: Develop concepts, mechanisms and vocabulary to understand
biological intelligent behavior
Alternatively, methodologies can be defined by choosing
(1) the goals of the computational model, and (2) the basis
for evaluating performance of the system:
| 1 Think like humans "cognitive science" Ex. GPS |
2 Think rationally => formalize inference process "laws of thought" |
| 3 Act like humans Ex. ELIZA Turing Test |
4 Act rationally "satisficing" methods |
