| 2008-11-01 | Kyle | 9 | 9 | 10 | 9 | No | Thanks for the reply. I see that it may not be so easy and its something I need to look into further. |

| 2008-07-12 | John | 8 | 9 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks Chuck Yes, I see what you mean: extended conversation might be a way. I would fail! "The Chinese Room" shows the convrsation might have to be very much extended. John |

| 2008-03-27 | Shawn | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks for the responses. FL and NN are examples of process giving distributed sense, but the *digital* nature of code may leave the machine "cold", quantized, isolated, and clocked. The holographic display is just a simple example of a mechanism that holds analog numbers or images with natural fuzziness and crosstalk, a spatial re-projector of data, so to speak. Of course, the next step after having a mechanism, is finding how to use it proerly. I could describe applications, but that level of detail would give away the coding store. I suppose if a computer had alot of surface and chemical sensor data, image data, movement data, and had a large amount of sensors in a "mouth" mechanism near its "hands" mechanism, it would start off chewing on things, with a bootstrap program meant to explore the world to describe what it experienced. Like Cyc being able to surf the net to learn things under slight supervision, compared to the days they hand inputed all relationships. NN are simple to understand as a matrix processor that combines various multiplied weight mixes of an input vector, to produce one or multiple "views" of the input vector, and additionally applies nonlinear functions ..... |

| 2007-10-07 | halley | 8 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Had there been more enumerated programs, it would be ranked higher. |
| 2007-09-17 | Frans | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | thank you very much for the conversation. |

| 2007-05-21 | Sean | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks for the timely and detailed response. That's the first feedback I've gotten from someone who has worked in the field, and it was extremely useful! |
| 2007-04-02 | Candy | 10 | 10 | 8 | 10 | No | Thank you so much. I guess it's true what they say....you get what you pay for. Dragon is the most expensive one. I just hope it does what i need it to do. Thanks again. |

| 2005-08-18 | Sergio Martone | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Faultless advice. Trustworthy Knowledge. Thank you Chuck. |
| 2005-08-08 | Sergio Martone | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you very much for your response... I've been studying related problems in my classes (I'm a CS/linguistics student at USC), but as far as practically implementing things like this, its more of a long term interest of mine. One more thing that I wanted to ask you was about what you use to make the conceptual matrices...is that in a relational DB for the SQL or is it something else? In classes we learned about RDF and Loom, which seem that they could be examples of conceptual matrix languages. Well, thank you again...it is very helpful to have heard from someone with practical experience, Abe Kazemzadeh kazemzad@usc.edu |

Expertise
I can answer questions about speech recognition and natural language understanding. I am particulary strong in knowedge based natural langauge techniques. I cannot answer questions about robotics, nueral nets, prolog, or vision recognition - just speech and natural language.
Experience
I have spent 25 years developing natural language software products. I have never developed speech systems, but I have developed sophisticated interfaces from natural language to speech. I have been working with speech recognition systems also for 25 years.
