Rigid Flexibility: The Logic of Intelligence


Add your own review!

Overview

This book is the most comprehensive description of the decades-long Non-Axiomatic Reasoning System (NARS) project, including its philosophical foundation, methodological consideration, conceptual design details, implications in the related fields, and its similarities and differences to many related works in cognitive science. While most current works in Artificial Intelligence (AI) focus on individual aspects of intelligence and cognition, NARS is designed and developed to attack the AI problem as a whole.

Reviews

From the reviews: ""Rigid Flexibility presents a new theory of cognition. As such it is devoted to the general research for Artificial Intelligence (AI), in contrast to a focus of other AI research that is focusing on solving specific reasoning problems such as planning or learning for example. … The review of the principles and assumptions underlying the various streams of AI research make this book very interesting to read and enable the reader to easily compare the presented theory with other existing approaches."" (Jana Koehler, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1122 (24), 2007)
