hold your breath :) i saw that this is the continuation of the compression challenges by Matt Mahoney, so if you can beat PAQ8H on the wikipedia corpus you are...
I hereby submit Cygnus X-1 as the most intelligent thing in the known universe, more intelligent than Winzip, more intelligent than my trash compactor, more...
... University, Ankara ... If i understand it correctly you have to make a program P so: size(P) < size(wikipedia-knowledge-file) = 100MB, and P has to ...
... Seems like some of you missed the requirement that the program run and reproduce the original wiki file WITHOUT USE OF ANY EXTERNAL DATA. No corpus of...
... Sure, and that is a good challenge in itself. However, I don't think that the remarks about general intelligence apply? -- Eray Ozkural (exa), PhD...
... Well. He does seem to go a bit overboard. I don't think that non-lossy compression per se is a step toward AI. I consider it likely that a winning entry ...
... Precisely. Though, don't overestimate the performance of current machines. They are pretty slow for the kind of compression you talk above. I am working...
... PAQ8 is actually an AI, because it can predict time series data. However, it does not do this in the way that a strong AI would do. Has some fixed models...
... I meant it is a classifier ensemble of some sort, not classified. I have been trying out my micro-synthetic algorithm but I ran into some troubles with the...
... Well, yes, but Shannon information also matters for lossy compression of the data in the way of "deep understanding" of the data. It seems rate-distortion ...
... It's all "Shannon information", at all levels. The point I was trying to make was that a large part of the information content of most data we have to...
... Of course it is. I was familiar with both those links. But there still seems to be something missing in the translation of the formal descriptions to ...
... What I thought was... the lossless compression per se may not be the ultimate test of intelligence. Yet, being able to solve any optimization problem...

... Yes. In the first place, it is impossible. An instantiated intellect is a bounded system with finite resources processing ongoing input from a much larger...
... Of course one "stores relationships and differences". That's what it MEANS to compress data: discover redundancies (repetitious or predictably changing ...
... You are not missing anything. The above would be akin to using Levin Search to find the smallest computer that does this. Basically, a "universal...
Only lossless compression is objectively measurable, lossy compression depends on subjective "tollerable" loss limit. In fact, there's no objective distinction...
