Replicode: A Constructivist Programming Paradigm and Language
No full textReplicode is a language designed to encode short parallel programs and executable models, and is centered on the notions of extensive pattern-matching and dynamic code production.
The language is domain independent and has been designed to build systems that are modelbased and model-driven, as production systems that can modify their own code. More over, Replicode supports the distribution of knowledge and computation across clusters of computing nodes.
This document describes Replicode and its executive, i.e. the system that executes Replicode constructions. The Replicode executive is meant to run on Linux 64 bits and Windows 7 32/64 bits platforms and interoperate with custom C++ code.
The motivations for the Replicode language, the constructivist paradigm it rests on, and the higher-level AI goals targeted by its construction, are described by Thórisson (2012), Nivel and Thórisson (2009), and Thórisson and Nivel (2009a, 2009b).
An overview presents the main concepts of the language. Section 3 describes the general structure of Replicode objects and describes pattern matching. Section 4 describes the execution model of Replicode and section 5 describes how computation and knowledge are structured and controlled. Section 6 describes the high-level reasoning facilities offered by the system. Finally, section 7 describes how the computation is distributed over a cluster of computing nodes.
Consult Annex 1 for a formal definition of Replicode, Annex 2 for a specification of the executive, Annex 3 for the specification of the executable code format (r-code) and its C++ API, and Annex 4 for the definition of the Replicode Extension C++ API

Dr. Eric Yellin – Faculty Author Interview
No full textDr. Eric Yellin, Associate Professor of History and American Studies discusses his new book, Racism in the Nation’s Service: Government Workers and the Color Line in Woodrow Wilson’s America, published recently by the University of North Carolina Press. In this book, Dr. Yellin argues that President Wilson’s administration successfully segregated the federal government in the age of progressive politics. He investigates how the enactment of the segregation policy imposed a color line on American opportunity and implicated Washington in the economic limitation of African Americans for decades to com
Learning Problem Solving Skills from Demonstration: An Architectural Approach
No full textWe present an architectural approach to learning problem solving skills from demonstration, using internal models to represent problem-solving operational knowledge. Internal forward and inverse models are initially learned through active interaction with the environment, and then enhanced and finessed by observing expert teachers. While a single internal model is capable of solving a single goal-oriented task, it is their sequence that enables the system to hierarchically solve more complex task. Activation of models is goal-driven, and internal ”mental” simulations are used to predict and anticipate future rewards and perils and to make decisions accordingly. In this approach intelligent system behavior emerges as a coordinated activity of internal models over time governed by sound architectural principles. In this paper we report preliminary results using the game of Sokoban, where the aim is to learn goal-oriented patterns of model activations capable of solving the problem in various contexts
