Alan, thanks for the support!!! Your kind words really encourage me on my work =) From now I'll say "pattern discovery"
James: I've just placed an order for that book at amazon =) I'll se what I can get from it (I hope a lot, because the book is quite expensive!!) Gary: your book looks interesting too, but I feel the "Solomonoff" thing seems more generic. I'll try your book after that one. > Your project probably involves doing the prediction on a character rather > than a word basis but if you happen to be thinking along the line of words > instead of characters, I would be interested in hearing more about your > work. If Solomonoff is powerful enough, I hope it "realizes" by itself that data is grouped in "words" when it happens so - haha. I'm not working with human language, but who knows, maybe I'll get in a similar way - I'll tell you if that happens =) Cliff: what you told us about the languages was quite interesting. Unfortunately for me, Trigrams is a given pattern; and what I want is the machine to discover patterns by itself. Anyway it's a good approach. It's always good to have handy simple tools when everything gets fuzzy...

You have just earned a spot in my list of the world's top-ten AI researchers. Compared to the NLPers, you are the one who is _REALLY_ working on AI. I don't know what the NLPer's are smoking but you are on the right track. I generally frown on the term "pattern recognition" but, perhaps, pattern discovery would work... I wrote an article on my thinking on this reciently that I would have to dig out of the archives of [EMAIL PROTECTED] to send you. Please consider me at your disposal for any additional help on the subject. There are no books on the subject, you are writing your own... Welcome to the cutting edge! =) Pablo wrote: > I'm looking for information about "pattern induction" or "general > patterns" or anything that sounds like that... > > What I want to do is, having a stream of data, predict what may come. > (yes, and then take over the world... sorry if it sounds like Pinky and > The Brain!!!!!!!!!!) > > I guess general patterns induction is related to data compression, > because if we find a pattern in a string, then we don't have to write > all the characters every time the pattern appears.
