John von Neumann 的《The Computer and the Brain》;Thomas H. Cormen 的《Introduction to Algorithms》(算法导论);Donald Knuth 的《The Art of Computer Programming》(计算机程序设计艺术)[必须的!];Marvin L. Minsky 的《Computation: Finite and Infinite Machines》;Godel,……

……这里很适合用一句话:“谁来监督监督者?”(Who watches the watchmen?)答案依然是监督者必须自我监督,而且自身必须极其可靠。针对这个话题,我推荐数学天才 von Neumann 写的《The Computer and the Brain》,他在书中探讨了计算系统如何可靠地互联,以及各种失效概率如何相互作用。他当时很感兴趣的是人脑为何具备如此强大的抗故障能力——不用担心……
…expression to apply here is "Who watches the watchmen?" The answer again is the watchmen must watch themselves and be very reliable. On this topic I recommend von Neumann's (the brilliant mathematician) "Computer and the brain" book, where he explores how computing systems can be reliably interconnected and how those failure probabilities interact. He was interested on how the brain could be so robust to failure -- don't worry…
……心不在焉,我猜肯定得是有什么东西激起了他的兴趣才行,不过他对“有趣”的定义极其广泛。他确实在《The Computer and the Brain》里推测了大脑的工作机制,这本书基于他生前规划好但未能亲自讲授的一套系列讲座。虽然更多是放在自动机理论(automata theory)的语境下讨论,但作为一个对 AI、自动机和神经科学感兴趣的人,坦率地说……
…absent minded, I suspect that it had to be something that piqued his interest, but his sense of what was interesting was extremely broad. He did in fact speculate on the workings of the brain in The Computer and the Brain, which is based on a lecture series he had planned out but did not deliver. It was more in the context of automata theory, but as someone with an interest in AI, automata, and neuroscience, it was frankly…
……技术可以与生物生命以互补的方式对接,而且这些方向值得去探索。我认为他最终成功了,因为如今我们对很多这样的想法早已习以为常。John von Neumann 的《The Computer and The Brain》是一本短小精悍的好书。它主要探讨了大脑突触如何发射二进制信号(binary signals)。
…technology could interface with biological life in a complementary way and those ways should be pursued. I think he was ultimately successful since we take a lot of those ideas for granted today. "The Computer and The Brain" by John von Neumann is a great and short read. It mostly talks about how binary signals can be fired by synapses in the brain.
John von Neumann 就这个话题写过一篇题为《The Computer and the Brain》的文章,对这两种系统做了相当不错的对比,尽管当时对这两者的认知还相当原始。其核心思想是,计算机在好几个数量级上……
John von Neumann wrote an essay on the topic titled The computer and the brain, which is quite a good comparison between the two types of systems, even though knowledge of the two was pretty primitive at the time. The basic idea is that computers are multiple orders of magnitude…
