Contemporary machine intelligence is far from realizing prominent hallmarks of human understanding and consciousness. the primary shortcoming of current methods can be attributed to the difficulty or implausibility of foreseeing and pre-programming each and every piece of information or knowledge. Emergent intelligence methods based on principles of self learning and self organization have been successful in infusing traits of understanding in machines. this understanding is in contrast to the constrained intelligence permeated on machines by classical approaches of intelligence following supervised knowledge acquisition mechanisms. the primary objective of this paper is to review current work in emergent intelligence methods and discuss means of orchestrating these in to a practical model that resembles the process of human understanding. the paper delineates intricacies of self-learning in humans from both biological and psychological perspectives. Following a discussion of several artificial models of the human mind that have been researched and documented at the conceptual level, we propose a comparatively pragmatic approach based on a novel unsupervised learning algorithm, the GSOM algorithm. this algorithm has been successfully applied to many real world knowledge acquisition and pattern discovery problems. the paper concludes with a further discussion of research developments in emergent systems, which we perceive to be the stepping stones in the search for true machine understanding.
machinelearning methods have been widely used in bioinformatics, mainly for data classification and patternrecognition. the detection of genes in DNA sequences is still an open problem. Identifying the promoter regi...

Dimensionality reduction has long been an active research topic within statistics, patternrecognition, machinelearning and datamining. It can improve the efficiency and the effectiveness of datamining by reducing the dimensions of feature space and removing the irrelevant and redundant information. In this paper we transform the attribute selection problem into the optimization problem which tries to find the attribute subset withthe maximal fractal dimension and the attribute number restriction simultaneously. In order to avoid exhaustive search in the huge attribute subset space we integrate the individual attribute priority with attribute subset evaluation for dimensionality reduction and propose the unsupervised Sequential Forward Fractal Dimensionality Reduction(SFFDR) algorithm. Our experiments on synthetic and real datasets show that the algorithm proposed can get the satisfied resulting attribute subset with a rather low time complexity.

Artificial Immune Systems (AIS) are emerging information processing methods, which embody the principles of biological immune systems for tackling complex real-world problems. the Artificial Immune recognition System (AIRS) is a new kind of supervised learning AIS. the development of microarray technology has supplied a large volume of data for the prediction and diagnosis of cancer. Many popular machinelearning techniques have been used in the microarray data analysis. In this paper, we apply AIRS to perform the microarray data classification based on an improved version of the information gain feature selection method three traditional classifiers have also been employed in our experiments for performance comparison. the results demonstrate the promising ability of AIRS in the microarray data analysis.

this paper presents a stagewise least square (SLS) loss function for classification. It uses a least square form within each stage to approximate a bounded monotonic nonconvex loss function in a stagewise manner. Several benefits are obtained from using the SLS loss function, such as: (i) higher generalization accuracy and better scalability than classical least square loss;(ii) improved performance and robustness than convex loss (e.g., hinge loss of SVM);(iii) computational advantages compared with nonconvex loss (e.g. ramp loss in ψ-learning);(iv) ability to resist myopia of Empirical Risk Minimization and to boost the margin without boosting the complexity of the classifier. In addition, it naturally results in a kernel machine which is as sparse as SVM, yet much faster and simpler to train. A fast online learning algorithm with an integrated sparsification procedure is also provided. Experimental results on several benchmarks confirm the advantages of the proposed approach.

Support Vector machine (SVM) is an effective algorithm in patternrecognition. But usually, standard SVM requires solving a quadratic program (QP) problem. In majority situations, most implementations of SVM are approximate solution to the QP problem. As the approximate solutions cannot achieve the expected performance of SRM theory, it is necessary to research ensemble methods for SVM. Recently, in order to augment the diversities of individual classifiers of SVM, many researchers use random partition withthe whole training to form sub-training sets. therefore the performance of aggregated SVM, which was trained on those subsets, was improved. We proposed the ensemble method based on different implementations of SVM, because they have large diversities by their different implementing methods. the experiment results showed that this method is effectively to improve the aggregated learner's performance.

Neural Networks have been widely used in the field of intelligent information processing such as classification, clustering, prediction, and recognition. Unsupervised learning is the main method to collect and find features from large unlabeled data. In this paper a new unsupervised learning clustering neuron network-Dynamic Growing Self-organizing Neuron Network (DGSNN) is presented. It uses a new competitive learning rule-Improved Winner-Take-All (IWTA) and adds new neurons when it is necessary. the advantage of DGSNN is that it overcomes the usual problems of other clustering methods;dead units and prior knowledge of the number of clusters. In the experiments, DGSNN is applied to clustering tasks to check its ability and is compared with other clustering algorithms RPCL and WTA. the results show that DGSNN performs accurately and efficiently.

Computer-Aided Plant Species Identification acts significantly on plant digital museum system and systematic botany, which is the groundwork for research and development of plant. this paper presents a new method for plant species identification using leaf image. It focuses on the stable features extraction of leaf such as the geometrical features of shape and the texture features of venation. the 2-D moment invariants, Wavelet statistical features are used to extract leaf information. Self-Organizing Feature Map (SOM) neural network has the advantages of simple structure, ordered mapping topology and low complexity of learning. It is suitable for many complex problems such as multi-class patternrecognition, high dimension input vector and large quantity training data. So this paper use SOM neural network to identify the plant species. the experimental results illustrate the effectiveness of this method.

During the past few years, semi-supervised learning has become a hot topic in machinelearning and datamining, since manually labeling training examples is a tedious, error prone and time-consuming task in many practical applications. As one of the most predominant semi-supervised learning algorithms, co-training has drawn much attention and shown its superiority in many applications. So far, there have been a variety of variants of co-training algorithms aiming to settle practical problems. In order to launch an effective co-training process, these variants as a whole create their diversities in four different ways, i.e. two-view level, underlying classifiers level, datasets level and active learning level. this paper gives a review on co-training style algorithms just from this view and presents typical examples and analysis for each level respectively.
