In article <3018@crete.cs.glasgow.ac.uk> gilbert@cs.glasgow.ac.uk (Gilbert Cockton) wonders: > How do AI types *REALLY* test their systems? I suppose AI types test their systems much the same way teachers test their students. By giving them examinations consisting of puzzles or problems appropriate to the class of intelligence which the learning system has presumably acquired. Neural network classifiers are given samples to classify. Diagnostic expert systems are given the symptoms of ailments or fault conditions. Theorem provers are given candidate theorems to decide. The successful intelligent system (be it made of silicon or made of meat) gets a passing grade and goes ahead. The unsuccessful ones go back for remedial education or flunk out. (Or maybe they just end up as USENET junkies.) --Barry Kort
