Framework for Assessing AI Systems' Cognitive Architectures

Human-level artificial intelligence (AI) has many potentially beneficial applications, but research has yet to produce a computer system with the intelligence of a 5-year-old child. Under sponsorship of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), IDA developed a framework for measuring progress in the achievement of truly intelligent systems and used it to analyze existing cognitive architectures that show promise for contributing to the development of machines with human-level intelligence.
