Active Jelly Browser

Assothink is: 

• a new model of Associative Artificial Intelligence
• a set of programs implementing this model (most are hidden servers)

Among the accessible programs are:

• the Passive Jelly Browser (accessible online here)
• the Active Jelly Browser (described in this page, and accessible online here)

Assothink model overview

Assothink is an attempt to create associative (thus completely non-numeric) artificial intelligence. It is assumed that natural intelligences do not use computing devices: they perform various 'intelligent' tasks through simpler association processes.

The assothink model manages:

the passive jelly containing:

units

concepts (language independant, unnamable but definable objects)

percepts (language linked, lemmas, close to concepts and linked to them)

variants (language lined, flections, linked to percepts)

links between units

qualified links (structured links, the connecting object being a concept)

fuzzy links (with variable permeability)

the active jelly containing

excitation levels for all concepts, involving

excitation transition effects

excitation resonance effects

focused consciences organized in tree

Understanding the information displayed in the active browser

The active browser shows something like a walking thinking engine, jumping across concepts.

The visible information is a selction of bubbles representing concepts with the highest excitation level (at any time).

Nodes are individually excited by various means (this is something like an external input for a walking mind):

• random spontaneous excitation
• words (percepts) driven excitation
• concepts driven excitation
• click based excitation

Walking speed

The displayed information changes quickly. It is possible to modify the walking speed. Clicl on speed control...
