Rich & Knight (1991) classified and described the different areas that
Artificial Intelligence techniques have been applied to as follows:
Mundane Tasks
• Perception - vision and
speech
• Natural language
understanding, generation,
and translation
• Commonsense reasoning
• Robot control Formal Tasks
• Games - chess,
backgammon, checkers, etc.
• Mathematics- geometry,
logic, integral calculus,
theorem proving, etc.
Expert Tasks
• Engineering - design, fault
finding, manufacturing
planning, etc.
• Scientific analysis
• Medical diagnosis
• Financial analysis

- Voluminous
- Dynamic
 Knowledge acquisition
- Fact finding methods support only
- Tacit and higher level knowledge
- Multiple experts
 Knowledge representation
- Limited knowledge structures support
 KBS development models
- Only SAD/SE guidelines and a few quality metrics
 Large size of knowledge base
Limitations of Symbolic Representation

Introduction Bio-Inspired Computing
 New approaches to AI
 Taking inspiration form nature and biological systems
 Includes models such as
 Artificial Neural Network (ANN)
 Genetic Algorithm(GA)
 Swarm Intelligence(SI), etc.
 Nature has virtues of self learning, evolution,
emergence and immunity
 The objective of bio-inspired models and techniques to
take inspiration from Mother Nature and solve
problems in more effective and intelligent way
