July Contest Results

All the contestants in the writing contest have voted, and they have been counted. Each had to vote for their three other favourite articles, earning respectively 4, 2 and 1 points. As you may expect, there was a clear winner.

Emergent Intelligence - by Danilo Benzatti (16 points)
Published 16/08/2002 at http://ai-depot.com/CollectiveIntelligence/Ant.html

First place got the maximum amount of points, and the rest of the field split the votes. They will be published in an order chosen to maximise the experience of the reader (as Danilo suggested :). In alphabetical order, they are:

  • Artificial Life: A Programmer's Perspective - Rinku Dewri
  • Classical and Connectionist Cognitive Models - Linden Hutchinson
  • Color Recognition and Neural Networks - James Kingsbery
  • Machine Learning in Games Development - Nick Palmer

An honourable mention goes to Rinku and Linden, who had a very close battle for the second spot. A great big thanks to all participants, and congratulations to you all for this amazingly high standard contest. I've had very positive feedback about EACH essay, so naturally there are only winners!

The next contest has started, and has two prizes. It's partly themed, so entries about the history of AI and influential people will be more likely of getting the Jury's prize.
