Hi. Im a newbie to lisp and this forum.

I hope this one is better than previous ones , which ignor answering.

Im interested in agi. Preferable hybrid architectures or just getting started with creating my own. (in lisp or loom)

Id appreciate any useful and proven input

Hi,

I'm not aware of any current artificial general intelligence toolchains written in Lisp.

Most machine learning approaches these days, so called "deep learning", are numerically intensive.
Thus I expect those engines to be written with the tools that currently dominate numeric tasks (C/C++, Fortran, etc.).
There are some CL tools for vectorized code on the CPU and GPU, but they are not as mature as the tools for vendor-supported languages.

This page has a few leads, but most of them look like "old" AI techniques.

Thanks . I will check it.

I found Sneps , a lisp program , but doesnt seem to load with clisp or sbcl or cmul .

Any idoes?

[sylwester]

Sure about that? According to this mailing list entry it seem to be compatible with CL and thus should work with CLISP (as shown in the enrtry) as well as other compatible CL implementations like SBCL.

Hi. Ive tried all of them but no success.The same problem with Sigma( (problem with quicklisp not loading requirements(used lispworks and acl as well as the others) Any specif suggestions?

Regarding sneps, here is the config file and output:



;;; This file is used to configure SNePS. Comments are given before each entry.

;; *sneps-directory* specifies the home directory of SNePS. If running the
;; executable, this is the directory the executable is located in. If running
;; the source version of SNePS, this is the directory that contains
;; load-sneps.lisp. This variable must be specified.

(defvar *sneps-directory*
"~/Sneps-2.8.0")

;; *use-gui-show* specifies whether to use the GUI version of show or the dot
;; version of show. A value of 't' specifies the GUI, while 'nil' specifies
;; dot. Commenting this out defualts to 't'. Non-windows users will
;; have to edit the Jlinker/jl-config.cl file in the sneps-directory,
;; which asks the user to point jlinker to the java home directory. Java
;; version 1.5 or greater is needed to run the GUI.

(defvar *use-gui-show* t)


;; *jung-directory* specifies the directory containing the jung-1.7.6.jar
;; file, which is part of the JUNG network visualization package. Note:
;; Versions of Jung greater than 1.7.6 will also work.
;; This variable must be specified if *use-gui-show* is 't', unless your
;; system's CLASSPATH environment variable is set up to include the directory
;; already.

(defvar *jung-directory*
(concatenate 'string
*sneps-directory*
"/SnepsGUI/SnepsGUIMods/JungFiles/JUNG/jung-1.7.6"))


;; *colt-directory* specifies the directory containing the colt.jar and
;; concurrent.jar files, which are part of the Cern COLT software package.
;; This variable must be specified if *use-gui-show* is 't', unless your
;; system's CLASSPATH environment variable is set up to include the directory
;; already.


(defvar *colt-directory*
(concatenate 'string

"/SnepsGUI/SnepsGUIMods/JungFiles/Colt/lib"))


;; *xerces-directory* specifies the directory containing the resolver.jar,
;; xercesImpl.jar, xercesSamples.jar, and xml-apis.jar files, which are part
;; of the Xerxes software package.
;; This variable must be specified if *use-gui-show* is 't', unless your

;; already.

;; *commons-directory* specifies the directory containing the
;; commons-collections-3.2.jar and commons-collections-testframework-3.2.jar
;; files, which are part of the Jakarta Commons Collection software package.
;; Note: Versions greater than 3.2 will most likely work as well.

;; *jimi-directory* specifies the directory containing the jimi-1.0.jar
;; file, which is part of the JIMI software package.
;; Note: Versions greater than 1.0 will most likely work as well.

;; already.


(defvar *jimi-directory*
(concatenate 'string

;; *eps-dump-directory* specifies the directory containing the dump.jar
;; file, which is part of the EPSDump software package.
;; This package is not necessary to use the SNePS Show command, and
;; if your system does not have the package, setting this path to 'nil'
;; will prevent the system from expecting the package.

;; *force-jlinker-config*: On windows paltforms jlinker attempts to configure
;; itself by inspecting the Windows registery. This should be sufficient for
;; running the SNePS GUI Show (*use-gui-show* is set to 't'). If the show
;; command does not work, uncomment the following variable binding and modify
;; the jl-config.cl file in the Jlinker subdirectory.
;;
;; *force-jlinker-config* t

;; *sneps-patch-directory* specifies the directory containing patch files.
;; Must be specified. The below setting should be fine for most users.
;;
(defvar *sneps-patch-directory* *sneps-directory*)

;; *sneps-default-lisp-extension* specifies the file extension for lisp files.
;; Defaults to ".lisp". This is not needed by the SNePS executeable.

;; *sneps-default-lisp-extension* "lisp"

;; *sneps-binary-extension* specifies the compiled extension for lisp files.
;; Defaults based on current lisp implementation running. Not required by

;; instead of Chris Lusardi's new implementation (for compatibility with old
;; stuff). Not needed by the SNePS executable
;;

(defvar *sneps-load-old-englex* nil)

;; *sneps-user-translations*: List of user supplied logical pathname
;; translations.
;; Changing the value of this variable after this file was loaded
;; will not have any effect."
;;

(defvar *sneps-user-translations* nil)

;; *sneps-use-lpmk*: If non-NIL Mark Kantrowitz's logical pathnames package
;; is used. This should only be non-NIL if there is no native implementation
;; of logical pathnames available in your Lisp. If the value is `:redefine'
;; then additionally standard Lisp functions such as `load', `open',
;; etc., will be redefined with LPMK versions that understand logical
;; pathnames. You can explicitly trigger redefinition by calling
;; `(lp:redefine-standard-functions)'. Redefinition is not necessary to
;; run SNePS, but it gives you the extra convenience of being able to use
;; logical pathnames throughout. Some Lisps lock the Lisp package, in
;; which case you might have to find out how to break that lock before
;; you can use redefinition. Even if there is a native implementation of
;; logical pathnames available it might not work for SNePS. In this case
;; setting this variable to `:redefine' might solve the problem by
;; redefining the native implementation with LPMK. Not needed by the SNePS
;; executeable.
;;

(defvar *sneps-use-lpmk* (not (fboundp 'translate-logical-pathname)))

;; *sneps-debug*: Set 'nil' for compiled code that is faster, but harder to
;; debug. Set 't' for compiled code that is easier to debug, but slower.
;; Not needed by the SNePS executeable
;;

(defvar *sneps-debug* nil)



And output

~/Sneps-2.8.0$ clisp load-sneps.lisp
*** - LOAD: A file with name
/projects/snwiz/Install/Sneps-2.8.0/snerg_config.lisp does not exist


I even made a dummy file with that name , and it still outputs the same.

There is no sneg file,
