A Brief Introduction to NINA™

NINA is the latest method of artificial intelligence goes beyond neural networks and conventional computer progrmming to allow machines to make decisions and take actions: working faster than humans, handling more complex challenges, and more reliable; but not acting intuitively or brilliantly.

In manufacturing and logistics, artificial intelligence software runs manufacturing operations and supplier orders to meet a complex series of just-in-time production schedules. The Japanese have begun to incorporate artificial intelligence hardware into kitchen appliances to control cooking cycles, and into cameras to control focusing and exposure. In complex data mining and interpretation, such as identifying a signal or image,, artificial intelligence of the right kind can speed the process of finding and matching, especially when the data are noisy or incomplete.

NINA is a new generation of artificial intelligence technology, so endorsed by a National laboratory, which uses 5 different types of reasoning, and can work even if the available data are error-laden or partially missing. This is how NINA differs from available artificial intelligence software, which generally makes major mistakes if there are even minor mistakes or missing items in the supplied data.

NINA is particularly useful in Data Mining, handling large masses of data very quickly, making rapid decisions and advising its confidence in these decisions based on the quality of the data.

NINA was successfully used in a vehicle maintenance system which allowed an unskilled technician with no computer experience to perform complex diagnosis and maintenance after 5 minutes' training. This capability was demonstrated on CNN.

A software tool into which any subject-matter expert can insert rules of behavior, or supply examples from which NINA learns the rules, this technology's range of applicability is very wide, from manufacturing and process control to decision-making, voice and image analysis, information retrieval, equipment diagnosis and maintenance, wherever human decisions can be augmented or assisted, or where events happen so fast that humans cannot keep up with the flow.

(1) NINA can operate on ordinary computers or be embedded in systems

(2) NINA can work even if some data are erroneous or missing,

(3) NINA recognizes different types of error and their different effects,

(3) NINA can be made self-teaching, learning by example.

(4) NINA can be used by anybody who is basically computer-literate.

 

OH YES: What does NINA stand for? .... "NINA Is No Acronym."
