On Intellectual Information Processing Methods
In March 2014 a methodological seminar took place in the Institute of Fundamental and Applied Studies at Moscow University for the Humanities (IFAS MosUH). Yuri I. Zhuravlev, full member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the director of the Mathematical and Computer Modelling Centre of the IFAS MosUH presented a report on intellectual information processing methods. Among the participants of the seminar there were researchers of the IFAS, students of the university. The outstanding Russian mathematician told about the beginnings of the idea of the application of special methods for intellectual data-processing operation in situations of underformalizable problems solving, difficulties and prospects of the development of artificial intelligence. He made numerous examples, including ones from his own research work when they succeeded in building of an algorithm for the solution of such objectives. The report was set forth taking into consideration the interests of humanities scholars. The academician told them about the mathematical issues very lucidly and emphasized that every scientist must be able to talk about his work in such a way as everyone could understand him/her.
