I can understand what your saying to a degree. Indeed if you trained a label "cat jumped out of the box" directly, its not the same as understanding cat, jump and box separately - which is alot more successful/invarient/reusable? The way you say this a "mathematics" problem, was alien to me, hence my nomenclatural confusion, i come from a gamer making background, and us kids didnt do much formal maths, it wasnt maths to us, what we were doing. (but of course it is. hehe) So indeed, if you treat it as an algebraic model, binary or otherwise, i think this is quite a successful way to attempt artificial intelligence.
Good luck to you, Its a lot of work if you want a finished model, and it can make you filthy rich too. :) ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T395236743964cb4b-Mdeeafacab8229dee6b8bed9c Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
