Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming our world, ushering in a new era of technological advancement that promises to revolutionize every aspect of our lives. From healthcare to finance, from education to entertainment, AI is reshaping industries, driving innovation, and offering unprecedented opportunities for improving human well-being. As we stand on the cusp of this technological revolution, it is crucial to understand the fundamentals of AI, its applications, and the ethical and societal implications it brings. This book, "The Foundations and Future of Artificial Intelligence," aims to provide a comprehensive guide to the field of AI. It is designed for a diverse audience, including students, researchers, professionals, and anyone interested in understanding the profound impact of AI on our world. Our goal is to offer a clear and accessible introduction to the key concepts, methodologies, and applications of AI, while also addressing the challenges and ethical considerations that accompany its development and deployment.
Safe Passage: Astronaut Care for Exploration Missions sets forth a vision for space medicine as it applies to deep space voyage. As space missions increase in duration from months to years and extend well beyond Earth's orbit, so will the attendant risks of working in these extreme and isolated environmental conditions. Hazards to astronaut health range from greater radiation exposure and loss of bone and muscle density to intensified psychological stress from living with others in a confined space. Going beyond the body of biomedical research, the report examines existing space medicine clinical and behavioral research and health care data and the policies attendant to them. It describes why not enough is known today about the dangers of prolonged travel to enable humans to venture into deep space in a safe and sane manner. The report makes a number of recommendations concerning NASA's structure for clinical and behavioral research, on the need for a comprehensive astronaut health care system and on an approach to communicating health and safety risks to astronauts, their families, and the public.
Weather radar is a vital instrument for observing the atmosphere to help provide weather forecasts and issue weather warnings to the public. The current Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD) system provides Doppler radar coverage to most regions of the United States (NRC, 1995). This network was designed in the mid 1980s and deployed in the 1990s as part of the National Weather Service (NWS) modernization (NRC, 1999). Since the initial design phase of the NEXRAD program, considerable advances have been made in radar technologies and in the use of weather radar for monitoring and prediction. The development of new technologies provides the motivation for appraising the status of the current weather radar system and identifying the most promising approaches for the development of its eventual replacement. The charge to the committee was to determine the state of knowledge regarding ground-based weather surveillance radar technology and identify the most promising approaches for the design of the replacement for the present Doppler Weather Radar. This report presents a first look at potential approaches for future upgrades to or replacements of the current weather radar system. The need, and schedule, for replacing the current system has not been established, but the committee used the briefings and deliberations to assess how the current system satisfies the current and emerging needs of the operational and research communities and identified potential system upgrades for providing improved weather forecasts and warnings. The time scale for any total replacement of the system (20- to 30-year time horizon) precluded detailed investigation of the designs and cost structures associated with any new weather radar system. The committee instead noted technologies that could provide improvements over the capabilities of the evolving NEXRAD system and recommends more detailed investigation and evaluation of several of these technologies. In the course of its deliberations, the committee developed a sense that the processes by which the eventual replacement radar system is developed and deployed could be as significant as the specific technologies adopted. Consequently, some of the committee's recommendations deal with such procedural issues.
Annotation Proceedings of a June 2000 workshop, looking at applications of computer vision in the commercial and military domains, and discussing new possibilities on solving longstanding problems in the field and expanding on new application territories using non-visible sensors. Themes are infrared identification, object recognition, synthetic aperture radar image analysis, and infrared image analysis. Specific topics include complexity analysis of ATR algorithms based on invariants, cancer recognition of ultrasound images, recognition of occluded targets using stochastic models, and thermal imaging for anxiety detection.
