Artificial intelligence Project -Algorithms and Software for Learning Predictive Models

I am currently researching foci  which includes ontology-based information integration, characterization of effects of errors in mappings between ontologies, scalable learning algorithms for building classifiers from large distributed datasets, learning from partially specified data, multi-relational learning, learning from alterately structured data (e.g., text, images, sequences, graphs).

–> This Project presents a unified and coherent picture of the field. The contents focus on the topics and techniques that are most promising for building and analyzing current and future intelligent systems.

The Top Ten Algorithms of the Century

1. the Monte Carlo method or Metropolis algorithm, devised by John von Neumann,
   Stanislaw Ulam, and Nicholas Metropolis;
2. the simplex method of linear programming, developed by George Dantzig;
3. the Krylov Subspace Iteration method, developed by Magnus Hestenes, Eduard
   Stiefel, and Cornelius Lanczos;
4. the Householder matrix decomposition, developed by Alston Householder;
5. the Fortran compiler, developed by a team lead by John Backus;
6. the QR algorithm for eigenvalue calculation, developed by J Francis;
7. the Quicksort algorithm, developed by Anthony Hoare;
8. the Fast Fourier Transform, developed by James Cooley and John Tukey;
9. the Integer Relation Detection Algorithm, developed by Helaman Ferguson and
   Rodney Forcade; (given N real values X_I, is there a nontrivial set of
   integer coefficients A_I so that sum ( 1 <= I <= N )
   A_I * X_I = 0?
10. the fast Multipole algorithm, developed by Leslie Greengard and Vladimir
    Rokhlin; (to calculate gravitational forces in an N-body problem normally
    requires N^2 calculations. The fast multipole method uses order N calculations,
    by approximating the effects of groups of distant particles using multipole
    expansions)
