Abstract

A method for modeling human physical behavior and actions is disclosed. A brain emulation is defined that is represented by a plurality of nodes each representing a concept, and interconnecting relationships between select ones of the concepts, which brain emulation is operable to receive sensory information and process such sensory information and capable of communication of the outcome of such processing. The brain emulation is trained in a training mode to establish the relationships between concepts in response to training information input thereto that is designed to impart predetermined meaning to the one or more concepts in the brain emulation associated with the personality and basic persona of a particular historical figure. Thereafter, the brain emulation is operated in an operational mode after training to receive information either directly or through received sensory information. The received information is then processed based on the existing interconnecting relationships to output information parameterized by the trained persona of the historical figure.

Claims

1. A method for modeling human physical behavior and actions, comprising the steps of:

defining a brain emulation that is represented by a plurality of nodes each representing a concept, and interconnecting relationships between select ones of the concepts, which brain emulation is operable to receive sensory information and process such sensory information and capable of communication of the outcome of such processing;

training the brain emulation in a training mode to establish the relationships between concepts in response to training information input thereto that is designed to impart predetermined meaning to the one or more concepts in the brain emulation associated with the personality and basic persona of a particular historical figure;

operating in an operational mode after training to receive information either directly or through received sensory information; and

process the received information based on the existing interconnecting relationships to output information parameterized by the trained persona of the historical figure.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of training comprises a first basic training step to impart general meaning to the brain emulation that would be associated with a generalized persona and a second step to impart to the emulation information about the specific persona of the specific historical figure.

3. The method of claim 2, where the order is important ant the first step must occur prior to the second step.

4. The method of claim 3, and further comprising a third step of training to impart to the emulation information about current information relative to the persona of the historical person so as to modernize the persona of the historical person.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of training includes predetermined set training that is comprised of well known principles of language and personal relationships.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein both temperament and personality are imparted to the one or more concepts.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein one or more of the concepts are associated with emotional aspects of a human and the step of training imparts emotional weights to select ones of the emotional aspects as a function emotional attributes of the historical figure such that expression of any of the emotional aspects will be parameterized by the training information associated with the historical figure.

8. The method of claim 7, and further comprising associated the concept of human action with a node and modifying the expression of such action as a function of the expression of emotion.

9. The method of claim 1, and further comprising the step of driving an external visual display with information related to the training and parameterized by the persona of the historical figure on which the brain emulation is trained.

10. The method of claim 9, and further comprising receiving sensory input from a voice input device for input to the brain emulation and responding to information input thereto by modifying the visual display.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein the information used to train in the step of training is factual information about the historical figure.

12. The method of claim 1, wherein the information used to train in the step of training is experiential information about the historical figure.
