	Edward Feigenbaum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Edward Albert Feigenbaum (born January 20, 1936) is a computer scientist working in the field of artificial intelligence.
		Feigenbaum completed his undergraduate degree, and a Ph.D., at Carnegie-Mellon University.
		He received the ACM Turing Award, the most prestigious award in computer science, jointly with Raj Reddy in 1993 "For pioneering the design and construction of large scale artificial intelligence systems, demonstrating the practical importance and potential commercial impact of artificial intelligence technology".

		Feigenbaum's mother taught him algebra when he was in the fifth form but reading continued to be something that he did not like much.
		At MIT Feigenbaum's doctoral studies were supervised by Francis Low and he was awarded a doctorate in 1970 for a dissertation on dispersion relations.
		When Feigenbaum first found 4.669 in August 1975, which he only found to three places due to the limit of the accuracy of his HP65, he spend some time trying to see if it was a simple combination of 'well-known' numbers.

		Edward Feigenbaum, a professor of computer science at Stanford, is often called the father of expert systems, which are software programs that incorporate the best human thinking.
		EDWARD DE BONO: Something like ninety percent of all errors in thinking are errors of perception--this is indicated by work done by David Perkins at the Harvard Graduate School of Education--yet culturally we focus on logic.
		ED FEIGENBAUM: Not only will we have very powerful artifacts in the form of computers, and pattern-recognition machines to handle perception, but the construction of those machines will lead to a science of thought which is every bit as rigorous and useful for prediction as what we have now in chemistry and physics.

		EDWARD DE BONO: I want you to imagine a ship on the high seas, in which the engines keep stopping, the lights keep flickering, the crew's very demoralized, and things aren't good.
		ED FEIGENBAUM: The biggest surprises are going to be biological: on the positive side, gene therapy to cure a range of human diseases, and on the negative side, a very scary future for biological warfare.

		These are just a few of computer science professor Edward Feigenbaum's findings after a six-month study of the dynamics and structure of the Japanese software industry.
		Feigenbaum and students at the Stanford Japan Center in Kyoto interviewed officials at both MITI and quasi-governmental organizations, university professors, and leaders of about 20 Japanese companies ranging from large computer makers, like Fujitsu and NEC, to a small software firms.
		The findings of Feigenbaum's study will eventually be integrated into a book on the computer industry that Feigenbaum will write with William Miller and Haim Mendelson of the Business School faculty.

		DENDRAL was the result of cooperation between Joshua Lederberg, a geneticist and a Nobel prize winner in medicine or physiology in 1958, and computer scientist Edward Feigenbaum at Stanford University in 1965.
		Feigenbaum had been looking for a scientific case to advance his research in “inductive inference.” Lederberg was interested in bringing the computer into the biological sciences, hoping it would put them on a more systematic and predictive footing.
		Licklider, who was responsible for Feigenbaum’s initial DARPA grant in 1964, was so enthusiastic about this new direction in AI that he suggested Feigenbaum seriously expand his activities, in 1972, during his second period as head of DARPA.

		Feigenbaum and McCorduck are on the twenty-first floor of a modern but otherwise undistinguished high-rise in Tokyo, where, because of earthquakes, high-rises are unusual.
		Unlike, the classical Japanese technological manager who, as he climbs up the ladder of authority, gradually loses touch with the technology he manages, Fuchi commands the admiration of his staff for his deep involvement in technical projects and his awesome knowledge.
		In Feigenbaum's past conversations with him, Fuchi had seemed a man who despised the Japanese copycat stereotype, one that many Japanese themselves believe.

		However, two pairs of feet must be charcoaled equally: Feigenbaum is not the principal author of The Fifth Generation; his name appears first because F precedes M in the alphabet.
		Edward Feigenbaum and I have been friends for more than two decades—during which time, by the way, I wrote only highly complimentary words about both his early and his more current work in artificial intelligence.
		Perhaps I am more "optimistic" than Feigenbaum and McCorduck; I think that even the machinery they invent as only a "sendup" can (and will) be created and, what is more important, that it fits naturally into the world the rest of their book describes.

		On a recent visit to the doctor, Edward Feigenbaum had the eerie experience of seeing one of his inventions used in a way he never expected: His 25-year-old concept was being used to diagnose a problem with his own breathing.
		Feigenbaum was the first person to realize that human intelligence springs not from rules of logic but from knowledge about particular problems (whether it's chemistry or auto mechanics) and about the world in general.
		For a computer to think the way a human does, Feigenbaum theorized, it would have to know all of the commonsense things that people take for granted -- that a ball thrown in the air will return to earth, for example; or that a cup holding liquid should be carried right-side up.

		DENDRAL (for Dendritic Algorithm) was a computer program devised by Lederberg, chairman of the Stanford computer science department Edward A. Feigenbaum, and chemistry professor Carl Djerassi for the elucidation of the molecular structure of unknown organic compounds taken from known groups of such compounds, such as the alkaloids and the steroids.
		Lederberg and his colleagues believed that artificial intelligence--the use of computers for manipulating symbols, for instance the combination of words in an 'if-then' inference, rather than for purely numerical calculation--could assimilate the rules of inductive reasoning and empirical judgment that guide scientists and physicians in their work, rules for which mathematical representations did not exist.
