Sampletalk Research:
Nature-inspired algorithm design
● in logic
● in natural language understanding
● in question answering
● in image and video understanding
Can nature-inspired constructions replace the artificial ones, such as logical predicates, formal grammars, math formulas and equations?

Description of Sampletalk language and compiler
Build a program immediately from data processing examples:
Data processing example abstraction immediately becomes
a useful program if text matching is in focus.

Object Recognition System Design
for finding objects in images and video sequences
Universal Classification System
for classification of multiple objects in images and video sequences
This nature-inspired technology is also tested for video processing: it facilitates the creation of various intelligent vision systems using a single universal approach, which is based on so-called image samples. The system is trainable for detecting various objects and situations – on the road, in a production line, in a working environment etc. Signals of different nature and sources can be recognized by such a system and joined into a simple alerting language (see the red dots and the warning messages in the image above and in the videos below):
