Artificial Intelligence.

I have been interested in AI for many years. I have written articles and have developed several applications. If you would like to download and play with this software it is available below.

 Adam is my latest software I will be entering it into the 2012 Chatterbox Challenge and Loebner prize contests. Adam comes with it's own windows installer so all you have to do is download and launch the install program and an Icon should appear on your desktop. The version for the Chatterbox Challenge can be found  Here. This is a 23 Megabyte file so it will take a while to download. This is a standalone program and does not require any other files or software or even an internet connection once installed. It should run on any current windows computer. The Loebner version will come along later in February 2012.

Turin is an older program which was designed to integrate a dictionary with a chat program. Turin

The Loebner Prize competition requires a special protocol, I have written a test program that enables you to test your software against the protocol. You can get it Here There is also a judge program written in perl you can use.  Judge.pl This requires a Perl interpreter.

All software is virus and spy-ware free and designed for Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7. If you get any problems you can contact me by Email.

I have written a few articles regarding AI, you can view them below. (They are in PDF format.)

Why has AI failed so far.
What makes you, you.

Machine Translation.

There are too many languages in the world. How wonderful it would be if we could all talk to each other in a single language.  Machine translation would be a fantastic tool to break down the language barriers. True automated translation is still a dream but there has been some progress such as Google Translate.

I am very interested in this field and have written some applications to test out ideas and techniques, they can be found here.
