4. 4 The 50 th Anniversary of The Birth of AI A good time for AI researchers worldwide to review what happened in the past 50 years, to analyze what will happen in the future, and to discuss what and how we should do next.

5. 5 2, New Problems -- Inconsistent approaches and New demand

6. 6 The Structuralism Approach 1943, McCulloch-Pitts: Logic Model of Nerve Cell. 1981, Hopfield: New Model and Learning Algorithm of Neural Networks 1990, Computational Intelligence -- Neural Networks -- Fuzzy Logic -- Evolution Computing -- Chaotic Theory -- Rough Set Theory

7. 7 The Functionalism Approach 1956, Newell, Simon et al Logic Theorist, GPS, Means-Ends Analysis 1970, Feigenbaum et al Expert Systems (Knowledge Engineering) 1990 Hybrid Systems Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Fuzzy Set Theory Machine Learning Multi-Agent System

8. 8 The Behaviorism Approach 1990, Brooks: Intelligence without Representation; 1991, Brooks: Intelligence without Reasoning Pattern Recognition Action Response Effectiveness

9. 9 Brief Comments 1, All have made great progresses while facing critical difficulties. 2, All are independent to each other and lack of coordination. 3, It leaves questions: What is the relationship among the three? Are there any better approaches to AI ?

11. 11 3, New Approach -- A better approach to AI

12. 12 Mechanism Approach to AI Structure, function and behavior of intelligent systems can provide some meaningful information on intelligence though a deeper insight approach to AI research should be concerned with the mechanism of intelligence formation. Structure Behavior Function Mechanism

25. 25 Implications & Open Problems 1, Instead of being contradictory among the three, AI Theory is now becoming a big and harmonious family, a unified and systematic discipline, thus gaining greater momentum. 3, The unified theory of AI does not close the door but rather, it opens up more future works: -- Specific algorithms in all possible applications -- More Challenges: Implicit Intelligence – finding and defining problems 2, As results, AI should now mean the trinity of traditional AI, neural network (Computational Intelligence) and the senor- motor systems.

26. 26 4, New Proposal -- International Studies on Advanced Intelligence

27. 27 Should We Need To Prepare A New Platform? Advanced Intelligence: Natural Intelligence - Machine Intelligence (NN+ES+SM) Intelligence-Emotion-Consciousness-Cognition Complex System-Distributed Intelligence-Intelligent Web International Platform on Advanced Intelligence (IPAI): A New Platform for Conference on Advanced Intelligence. Basic Principles for IPAI: Freedom: For freely exchanging ideas and sharing progress. Free in and free out. Equity: All individuals are equal in IPAI. Democracy: Representatives of regions as operational body Host: in turn via Application
