Artificial Intelligence is Advancing Each day to Help Researchers

January 26th, 2009 SYDNEY - Bees can recognise faces even when viewed from different perspectives, a discovery that potentially opens the way to improved artificial intelligence software ystems. Bee researcher Adrian Dyer of Monash University carried out a study and said the finding could be applied in the development of imaging systems.

October 11th, 2009 LONDON - Though progressive in nature, yet highly sophisticated computer is no match to a child's common sense, as machines are not blessed with reasoning power. But artificial intelligence scientists are aspiring towards enabling computers to have human-level intelligence by developing a commonsense knowledge base.

September 12th, 2009 WASHINGTON - European researchers have created a legal analysis query engine that combines artificial intelligence, game theory and semantics to offer advice, conflict prevention and dispute settlement for European law. European law is complex, many layered and expanding.

June 2nd, 2009 WASHINGTON - A group of UGR researchers have come up with a software program that can enable a person who knows nothing about musical compositions to create an original one on his/her own. Project leaders Miguel Delgado, Waldo Fajardo, and Miguel Molina have revealed that their prototype Intelligent Multiagent Music System (Inmamusys) can compose and play music in real time.

October 5th, 2009 CDC to acquire business intelligence providerATLANTA — Business software developer CDC Software Corp. said Monday it has agreed to an all-cash purchase of a provider of business intelligence solutions for manufacturing intended to help expand its presence in the food and beverage, consumer packaged goods and automotive markets.

December 30th, 2008 LONDON - Britian is considering asking a private company to manage and run communications database that will keep track of all calls, emails texts and internet use, media reports said Wednesday. The decision to put the management of the country's super database containing identities and locations of every person into private hands will, however, be accompanied by tougher legal safeguards to avoid unnecessay leaks and accidental loss of data, the Guardian reported.

May 21st, 2009 BEIJING - An acclaimed Internet scientist has said that there is no way hackers could access top-secret data by penetrating the firewalls of military on government networks. Former National Computer Network Emergency response team's Director Professor Fang Binxing said there is no scientific basis to blame either China's military or the government for hacking other nations' networks because most of them are "out of reach".

During the first two days of the event, MoGo TITAN has set two new world records by winning a 19x19 competition with a 7-stones handicap against the 9P dan professional Go player Jun-Xun Zhou, and a 19x19 competition with a 6-stones handicap against the 1P dan professional Go player Li-Chen Chien.

March 29th, 2009 LONDON - Intelligence chiefs have cautioned the Gordon Brown Government about the possibility of China launching a cyber attack on Britain's telecom system. British Telecom's new communications network has been installed by Chinese telecom giant 'Huawei', which is allegedly funded by Beijing and has links to the People's Liberation Army.

June 29th, 2009 WASHINGTON - A team led by Yale University researchers has created the first rudimentary solid-state quantum processor, taking another step toward the ultimate dream of building a quantum computer. They also used the two-qubit superconducting chip to successfully run elementary algorithms, such as a simple search, demonstrating quantum information processing with a solid-state device for the first time.

July 22nd, 2009 Intel chief: Computer attacker still a mysteryWASHINGTON — The U.S. still has not figured out who was behind the July 4 cyberattacks that took down a series of government Web sites, National Intelligence Director Dennis Blair said Wednesday.
