Major AI Areas
1. Expert Systems
An ES is a computer program designed to act as an expert
in a particular domain (area of expertise). It typically includes a
sizeable knowledge base, consisting of facts about the domain and
rules for application to those facts. Medical (e.g. PXDES,
MYCIN) and Agriculture (e.g. AGREX)
2. Natural Language Processing
Goal is to enable people and computers to communicate in
ordinary or natural English.
- Comprehension of natural language:
Keyboard input (e.g. MS Word
Processor), speech recognition (e.g. IBM VoiceType
Dictation , BBN corporation: voice
activated browsers, speaker identification
for security and Operetta™)
- Generation of natural language.

3. Machine learning
Field of study that gives computer the ability to learn
without being explicitly programmed (Arthur Samuel, 1956)
ML learning provides best methods for
developing particular kinds of software, in
applications where:
1. Application is too much
complex for people to manually
design the algorithm. For instance,
soft- wares for sensor-based
prediction tasks such as speech
recognition and computer vision.

Field of study that gives computer the ability to learn
without being explicitly programmed (Arthur Samuel, 1956)
ML learning provides best methods for
developing particular kinds of software, in
applications where:
2. Applications require that the
software customize to its operational
environment after it is fielded. For
example, speech recognition system
that customize to the user who
purchase the software or recommenders
