WIKIPEDIDA’S LIST OF FUTUREOLOGISTS
Self-Improving Artificial Intelligence
Steve Omohundro for the Stanford University Computer Systems Colloquium. Steve presents fundamental principles that underlie the operation of “self-improving systems,” i.e., computer software and hardware that improve themselves by learning from their own operations.
Lecture 1 | Machine Learning (Stanford)
Professor Andrew Ng — provides a broad introduction to machine learning and statistical pattern recognition. Topics include supervised learning, unsupervised learning, learning theory, reinforcement learning and adaptive control. Recent applications of machine learning, such as to robotic control, data mining, autonomous navigation, bioinformatics, speech recognition, and text and web data processing are also discussed.
