Story Of Google AlphaGo


Today we look about stranger things done by modern computers with artificial intelligence. How did computers with artificial intelligence work in the past? They looked about all possible outcomes and choose the most logical outcome. It is called the brute force method.

IBM Watson
But after a few years, computers could collect information by reading things written in general languages and watching videos and pictures. IBM Watson computer is an example of that. However, our brains can work more than these simple works. As an example, we can make decisions by using our senses rather than depending only on the logic. Our brain works like that because it can learn new things from our memories and our experiences. Not only that these learned things can recognize similar situations and use them in similar problems. But it is not such easy work to teach a computer to work like this. Because even we don't know how we get decisions like that. So we have many difficulties to make a logic using this.

Many companies all over the world work hard for this purpose. Deepmind is a company that got success in this work and they went forward before others. Then Google company brought the Deepmind company because of its successful journey. Deepmind company could make an artificial neural network. It can learn new things through visuals and hearings without any help from a man and also it can use its learned things in another situation. As an example, this artificial neural network sees a computer game for a while and play it for a little time and learn the game very well. When it plays the game for some time it can beat a human easily. However, scientists could not understand whether this artificial neural network can take decisions by its sense as a human. These scientists took a decision to arrange a game for this artificial neural network with a man. They thought it is the best way to confirm this.

In the past chess game used to works like this. But chess game has only a few combinations of probability set. So in this situation, the computer can look at every possible outcome and find the most logical outcome(Brute Force) then it can beat a human easily. Many computers did that in the past.

Scientists need a complex game than chess to do this experiment correctly. Finally, they choose a game called Go. It is a Chinese board game. It looks like a Dam board. The main reason for choosing this game is it is a very complex game. Even a human can't learn this game completely. The combinations of probability set of this game are larger than the count of all atoms in our universe. Even a human can't play this Go game completely logically because this game has many combinations of probability set. If you ask the reason for a move from the best Go player in the world he also can't give the reason for that move. The scientists in the Deepmind company make a decision to give a chance to their artificial neural network to play against the best Go player in the world. They create this artificial neural network for this task especially. And it called AlphaGo.
Before the starting of this game, many specialists predicted that this computer can't win against this player. Because this Go game wants the sense in our brain as a special requirement. But finally, the AlfaGo computer could win the game. So the Deepmind company proved as their computer has a sense like humans. This is a big success that gets by a computer that has artificial intelligence.




The Facebook company also created an artificial neural network. And the company gave a chance to communicate between two computers in their own way. After some times scientists could understand that these two computers' communication language is not clear to us. It is their own language. Also, it is a secret language. Because of this scientists have to terminate the experiment.  But later they understand that these two computers create a secret language because our language is not an efficient way to communicate. So they created their own method to communicate efficiently than us. 


Today these artificial neural network computers can use their own sense and take decisions like us and go beyond the logical boundary and find new things. I think this news scared you. Because nowadays computers can think like us, create new things faster than humans. But we should understand artificial intelligence also a human creation. We should not afraid to use its abilities. We use a hammer to tighten a nut, When we can't run 100kmph fast then we use a car, When we can't fly then we use an airplane. Also, we can hit by a hammer to hurt a man, we can drive a car to a man and make damage to him, all of us saw the 9/11 attack done by airplanes. Artificial intelligence also likes that we can use it for good works or bad works. You also can create a artificial intelligence by using the TensorFlow flat form. If one-day artificial intelligence go beyond our brain it is called a singularity. Just think how many years it will take to get this singularity?

Programming Using GNU Octave

  Questions: 1 A small object is projected from a toy gun to travel some distance and land on the ground. 1. Write a function to model the dynamics of the object in Octave called f_trajectory. f_trajectory will accept following arguments in the same order (measured in the given units). Also specify the default values for each parameter as given in brackets. i. h(5) : Initial height of the projectile (m) ii. g(9.81) : acceleration from gravity (m/s/s) iii. v(25) : speed at initial release (m/s) iv. theta(π/4) : angle of release (radians) v. t : a vector representing the points in time For default values of t check if the variable ‘exist’ with name ‘t’ and type ‘var’ if not initialize it as a row vector starting from 0 and goes to 5 with increments of 0.1. If x is distance and y is height, the equations below describe their dependence on time and all the other parameters. 𝑥(𝑡)=𝑣𝑐𝑜𝑠(𝜃)𝑡 ----------------(eq1) 𝑦(𝑡)=ℎ+𝑣𝑠𝑖𝑛(𝜃)𝑡− 12𝑔𝑡2 ---------------(eq2) Convert the above e

Library Problem

Image
A giant library has just been inaugurated this week. It can be modeled as a sequence of N consecutive shelves with each shelf having some number of books. No, think of the following two queries which can be performed on these shelves. ● Change the number of books in one of the shelves. ● Obtain the number of books on the shelf having the kth rank within the range of shelves. A shelf is said to have the kth rank if its position is k when the shelves are sorted based on the number of the books they contain, in ascending order. Can you write a program to simulate the above queries? Input Format : The first line contains a single integer T, denoting the number of test cases. The first line of each test case contains an integer N denoting the number of shelves in the library. The next line contains N space separated integers where the ith integer represents the number of books on the ith shelf where 1<=i<=N. The next line contains an integer Q denoting the number of queries to

What Is A Gamma Ray Burst?

Imagine if you could gather the energy from every star within a hundred million light-years. From thousands of galaxies, each with billions of stars. Imagine, you could take this kind of power, and use it to fire the biggest super-weapon in the universe. Imagine the damage you could do. It turns out, you don't need to imagine it. These exist, and they're called gamma-ray bursts. But what are these cosmic snipers? And what happens if one takes a shot at Earth? To understand gamma-ray bursts, we first have to understand gamma rays. Gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation – waves that carry energy just like visible light. Visible light is a tiny part of the electromagnetic spectrum: it's the part your eyes can see. At lower energies, there are radio waves, microwaves, and infrared. And at higher energies: ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays. Gamma rays are incredibly powerful. A single gamma-ray photon is more energetic than a million visible photons combined. Their
