Essays on Robot

As robots proceed to ubiquity within societal environments, there has been a concern related to the consequences of proliferation (Sharkey, 2008). Humans are faced with the dilemma of having to choose particular options that they intend to act upon where every available option will have their moral obligation that connects to what they are related. Ethical considerations, however, in practice is to consider resolution means for such issues. There are different schemes that can be adopted for holding such moral deliberations. However, the option of the scheme in case of any, to apply is up to an individual to ...

Logic and Emotion are two contrasting traits that challenge what separates humanity from robotics. These two traits are best represented by two characters: Dr. Calvin and Spooner. Dr. Calvin embodies logic and rationality while Spooner can be seen as the emotional and the irrational type. There is a reversal of gender stereotypes regarding these two characters. Being a woman, Dr. Calvin is expected to have been the emotional type, although this is instead reflected in Spooner’s attitude. Spooner’s aloof and spontaneous manner of speech contrasts with Dr. Calvin’s which is of a more professional note. Considering ...

The qualities that humans possess make them special from other living forms or objects. Yet, the studied stories suggest that there is a man – made form of existence that resembles humans in terms of reasoning, cognizing or even feeling human emotions, embodied into robots that possess artificial intelligence. The studied stories, “Tomorrow is Waiting” (Holli Mintzer), “EPICAC” (Kurt Vonnegut), “Robbie” (Isaac Asimov) or “Birth of A Robot” (Abigail Tucker) address the difference between humans and robots only to suggest that the difference is only a human – built concept. The robots presented in these stories show human features, such as ...

Ultrasonic sensors play critical role in making robots for detecting obstacles and avoid collision (Yarlagadda & Kim, 2012). Robots have a lot of significance in the modern world (Graetz and Michaels, 2015). Many industries are currently using robots for daily application (Johnson & Hanify, n.d). Gageick, Muller, and Montenegro (2012; King, 2011) study on obstacle detection and collision avoidance using ultrasonic sensors revealed the above. Researchers are constantly making robots for navigating to places where human beings cannot reach. Some devices such as mobile robots can easily perform different tasks without any human intervention when fitted with ultrasonic sensors that easily ...

The advancement in technology enabled man to create various types of intelligent robots that are now widely used by humans. These technologies, such as the evolutionary robotics, coupled with the need for people to automate daily and recurring tasks brought about the idea of creating autonomous robots. Today, intelligent robots are being beneficial in the performance of different tasks as science discovered ways to make these human creations become dependable and interactive. Needless to say, there is a shift from the previous study and design of robots from strict industrial purposes, into human friendly intents. Evolutionary robotics foresaw the ...

For a long time, this debate of Humans versus robot has persisted. Credible arguments have been tossed both ways to enumerate on the consequences, pros and cons of this. Artificial intelligence is the development of computerized systems that are able to mimic human-like intelligence in the use of vision, decision making, and behavior. The computerized systems are robots that are pre-programmed to carry out desired tasks. In the recent past and future robots have ventured into human jobs and are now threatening to overtake humans in their fields of expertise. In this document, we shall look at artificial intelligence and ...

Introduction

Machine learning techniques are based on an explicit or implicit model that enables categorize established patterns analyzed. A unique feature of these schemes is the need to train labeled data model behavior, this being a process that demands resources. Many machine learning-based schemes have been applied to NIDS. Some of the most important are Bayesian networks, Markov models, neural networks, fuzzy logic techniques, genetic algorithms, and clustering and outlier detection (Carbonneau, et. al., 2008, pp. 1140-54). The task of automatic text classification is based on building and using machines called supervised learning. The process of creating an ...

For in every adult there dwells the child that was, and in every child there lies the adult that will be. Childish memories remain vivid, no matter are they good or bad. A child cannot choose his parents and accepts anything that happens to him in the early years. After becoming a grown-up he can look at his luggage of hurts, attitudes, and false assumptions and decide, as a mature personality, which of them he really wants to discard in order to obtain internal harmony. However, there are memories that you want to carry through your whole life and keep them ...
