MAT 2051 Unit 4 DQ1 Machines, Intelligence and Neural Networks
Question
MAT 2051 Discrete Mathematics
In this
discussion, you will research the history of artificial intelligence (AI).
Write two to three paragraphs on the history of AI and how the ideas of logic,
resolution, and unification were implemented within machines so they could
demonstrate “intelligence.” In your post, answer at least two of the
following questions:
What is the
resolution and unification algorithm, and what is an algorithm?
What is the
Turing test, and who is Alan Turing?
What is a
neural network?
Can
machines really demonstrate intelligence?
In order to
answer these questions, you will have to search the Internet. Suggested search
terms include history of artificial intelligence, Turing test, and so on.

Discussion Participation Scoring Guide prior to posting.
Response
Guidelines
Read your
peers’ posts and respond to two. Assess your peer’s post. Do you agree or
disagree? Explain.
DQ2 Practice
Problem Set Review
This
discussion allows you to work with your peers to complete and understand the
assigned problem set for this unit. Remember, two initial posts and two response
posts are required. Further posts are optional and recommended:
For the
first post, select a problem from this unit’s problem set, write it out fully,
solve it fully, and post it.
The second
post can be a problem you cannot solve or another fully solved problem from the
problem set. If there is a problem in the problem set that you are confused
about, write it out fully and show any work that you have started. Note that
you are stuck and ask for help. If you are able to solve every problem in the set
without difficulty, post at least one other fully solved problem from the set
as your second post.
The third
and fourth posts are responses. Response guidelines are provided below and in
every discussion.
Take
advantage of this discussion area to work together as a class on the problem
set. Post as many problems as you can and review as many of your peers’ posts
as you can. Ask questions. Offer answers. If you are stuck on a problem, post
your question. Working as a team will help each person gain a better
understanding of the problem set and the concepts covered in this unit.
Although the problem sets are not graded they will help you prepare for the
quizzes in this course.
Response
Guidelines
The third
and fourth posts, the response posts, are your chance to help your peers.
Explore the posts made by your peers and find people who are stuck. Help at
least two peers through the problems they are stuck on. If you are unable to
locate a peer who is stuck, you may instead choose a peer post, write out your
solution to the same problem, and compare solutions and methods. The goal of
this area is for the entire class to work together as a group on the entire
problem set. You are also expected to complete and understand the problem set
on your own in preparation for the quizzes and final exam.
