This is divided into three major sub-areas: associative data structures, models of cognitive structures and grammatical inference. We have been studying the problems of associative memory in conventional computers for several years. The most recent development is the abiility to have several independent, parallel programs all sharing the same associative structure. We hope to study the problems of controlling access to a global structure in the context of hand-eye tasks. Another important tope to be studied is the addition of deductive inference cap bilities to the associative retrieval mechanisms. One of the most interesting and difficult problems in artificial intelligence is the modeling of human cognitive structures. We have developed such a model [2] and are studying several problems in language processing and understanding with this model. The model is unique in that it uses the notion of consequence (temporal, causal, ete.) as a central element. We are developing theories of analogy, generalization over instances and the relation between perception and understanding using this model. Work on grammatical inference continues to be fruitful. The theoretical work on decidability is complete [3] and we are looking at questions of optimal learning and teaching strategies. Many of these results will be directly converted into program heuristics. We are also studying the extension of these techniques to other problems of generalization. 22 REFERENCES l.

This project is working on two problem areas: (1) The Study of credibility functions in humans as well as in aritificial systems, (2) Question-asking or interviewing programs which operate in natural language. In the first area of interest the problem is to understand how a system, living or artificial, judges the credibility of new information based on information it already possesses. Descriptions of work already done on this problem can be found in Reference (1, 2, 3). Because the relevant variables are difficult to control in humans, it is considered necessary to develop artificial belief systems in which the belief processes under study can be brought under maximum control. In the second domain of interest, the problem consists of machine understanding of natural language. We have have considerable experience in this area (See Reference 4) and we are currently developing a program which conceptually analyzes natural language input. (See Reference 5). Once the input is "understood" the program can generate questions based on information it has received thus far rather than being limited to a fixed set of questions. 20 REFERENCES l.

Budget $1,975,859 is needed to support the research program described above for the eighteen month period beginning 1 January 1969. The budget below is divided into an initial six month period ($613,527 from 1 January through 30 June 1970) and following twelve month period ($1,362,332 from 1 July 1970 through 30 June 1971). Separate budgets are given for the Heuristic Dentral Project (H.D.) and the other artificial intelligence projects (A.I.) in each period. The Higher Mental Functions Project is separately supported so no funds are needed for it. The bulk of the funds requested are for salaries and personnel support costs. $20,000 per year is needed for test equipment, mostiy in support of the visual perception and control projects. $80,000 is budgeted in the second period for additional displays consoles. The existing 6 console display system is currently in saturated use about 18 hours per day and the utilization is increasing. aT QS Budget Item Salaries Staff Benefits University Overhead Travel Capital Equipment Equipment Rental Equipment Maintenance Computer Time Communications Publications Costs Other Operating Expenses Subtotal by Project Total by Period BUDGET SUMMARY For Continuation of SD 183 1 Jan 1970 - 30 Jun 1970 A.I. $24.0 ,4.83 29,579 137 5075 8,900 10,000 28,176 25,000 2,000 75500 125 22 4250 $515,088 1 Jan 1970 - 30 Jun 1971 H.D. $31,588 3 , 885 18,005 2,250 2,520 36 ,000 1,000 Wy 2,750 $98 54.39 $613,527 1 Jul 1970 - 40 Jun 1971 A.I.
