AI and Robotics Replications of Human Capabilities: Part 1
Humanity has always been looking towards replicating human capabilities through the use of machines, mechanisms, technologies, computers and computer programs. This first resulted in a shift from human labor to mechanization and automation by technologies and machines. Nowadays, the trend continues in the form of robotization: AI and Robotics. Robotics vs AI We use our… Read more
Foundations of Game Grid Designs: The Only 3 Regular Grids That Work
Most strategy games like chess, civilization 4 and 5, generals.io and others use a game grid design. It defines a map grid that you use to place units, buildings, etc. The grid has to consist of regular polygons to cover the entire map and leave no blank spaces. The question is, how many regular polygons… Read more
Sigmoid Neuron – Fundamentals of Neural Networks Part 2
Introduction to Sigmoid Function Previously we have covered Single-Node Perceptron neural networks. The next important topics to study are the sigmoid neuron of a neural network and logistic regression. Sigmoid function is defined as: This function originates in mathematical biology. Various fields have used it long before its adoption in artificial neural networks. Here’s a… Read more
From Cameras to 3D: The Magic of Stereo Vision in Action
Humans and other animals have long been capable of detecting depth in three dimensions with the help of binocular vision. The goal of computer stereo vision is to give a machine the same capabilities. It makes it possible to rebuild a three-dimensional depiction of the environment. In keeping with that, this study will first give… Read more
Single-Node Perceptron: Fundamentals of Neural Networks Part 1
Introduction Neural networks have been part of AI research for quite some time. It all started with a perceptron, which is a simplest Artificial Neural Network. It was introduced in 1958 by Frank Rosenblatt. Despite its simplicity, it serves as a fundamental building block in artificial neural networks and has several practical applications. It excels… Read more
