This article might be useful. <http://www.machineslikeus.com/cms/a-collection-of-definitions-of-intelligence.html> A Collection of Definitions of Intelligence Sat, 06/30/2007 By Shane Legg and Marcus Hutter This paper is a survey of a large number of informal definitions of "intelligence" that the authors have collected over the years. Naturally, compiling a complete list would be impossible as many definitions of intelligence are buried deep inside articles and books.
