Parts 5 and 6 of the FAQ are now under heavy construction.  The FTP & WWW
resources have been combined, since both are browser accessible these
days.  We're also pruning the entries to sites that include
information other than whatever project is being done at that
University, etc.

Subject: [5-1] Repositories and directories not aimed primarily at researchers AI Topics: http://www.aaai.org/Pathfinder/html/welcome.html Presented by AAAI, AI Topics is a "...web site provided ... for students, teachers, journalists, and everyone who would like to learn more about what artificial intelligence is, and what AI scientists do. [Their] goal is to offer a limited number of authoritative, non-technical resources that [they] have organized and annotated to provide you with meaningful access to basic information about the AI universe. Each of the AI Topics (see the navigation buttons to the left) will lead you to online and in-print sources of information. There has been an explosion in the number of Websites that catalog locations of AI information in a Yahoo-style directory. Although they often duplicate functionality, in the interest of fairness, I will list all the ones I know about here. About.com: http://ai.about.com Neuron AI Directory http://www.neuron.co.uk Neural Network Information in Polish: http://www.neuron.of.pl Generation 5: http://www.generation5.org "Generation5 is aimed at presenting a website that will educate the viewer on Artificial Intelligence -- whatever the level of expertise. We have essays on the applications and history of AI for those unfamiliar, to essays on programming and philosophy, all the way to full blown mathematically-orientated essays on genetic algorithms and neural networks. Generation5 prides itself also in its interviews sections with exclusive interviews from top AI scientists like Marvin Minsky, Craig Reynolds, Roger Schank, Andre LaMothe and many others. Generation5 also has a comprehensive collection of original programs, all with source included. Demonstration programs like image recognizors, number recognizors, cellular automata creators, NLP demonstrator and more. All programs have an accompanying essay describing the workings of the programs. The aim of Generation5 is not only to educate the viewer, but to allow the viewer to contribute to further other people's knowledge. They can do this through the discussion boards, voting systems, and soon through AI Solutions (a scheme to submit code - with a accompanying monthly competition)." Yahoo Clubs: Yahoo maintains a number of AI clubs. There is the general AI Group, an online community that discusses AI (a resource for beginners). Their website is: http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/artificialintelligencegroup There is also a resource for amateur robot enthusiasts at: http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/theroboticsclub Hubat: http://www.hubat.com/servlets/search?cmd=b&db=hubat&cat=3.1&st=0 Hubat automatically generates subject hierarchies of links. Interesting because it had to take some AI to build the engine. Pentomino Site: http://home.planetinternet.be/~odettedm Student run site at T.I.D. Ronse Belgium on searching Pentomino spaces.
Subject: [5-2] Repositories aimed primarily for researchers CMU AI Repository: The CMU Artificial Intelligence Repository was established by Carnegie Mellon University to contain public domain and freely distributable software, publications, and other materials of interest to AI researchers, educators, students, and practitioners. The AI Repository currently contains more than a gigabyte of material and is growing steadily. The AI Repository is accessible from: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/Web/Groups/AI/html/repository.html Artificial Life Online and the Artificial Life BBS: Sponsored by MIT Press and the Santa Fe Institute, Artificial Life Online and the Artificial Life BBS is intended to be a central information collection and distribution site on the Internet for any and all aspects of the Artificial Life endeavor. A special feature of the BBS is a collection of 40 or so local newsgroups dedicated to a wide variety of topics in Artificial Life. Artificial Life Online is accessible by World-Wide Web from http://alife.santafe.edu/ Case based reasoning: http://www.ai-cbr.org/ ai-cbr aims to provide a comprehensive information base to Case-Based Reasoning academics and commercial developers. Through the dissemination of information it is hoped a stronger world-wide community of people interested in Case-Based Reasoning will be fostered and the commercial use of Case-Based Reasoning will increase. (added to the FAQ 2/2/00) http://www.aic.nrl.navy.mil/~aha/research/case-based-reasoning.html A very complete list of resources including tutorials (added to the FAQ 2/2/00) Consortium for Lexical Research: clr.nmsu.edu:/CLR/ [128.123.1.12] Archive containing a variety of programs and data files related to natural language processing research, with a particular focus on lexical research.

Free: /usr/dict/words Roget's 1911 Thesaurus is available by anonymous FTP from the Consortium for Lexical Research clr.nmsu.edu:/CLR/lexica/roget-1911 [128.123.1.12] It is also available from ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/literary/collections/project_gutenberg/ An old Webster's dictionary is in /text/dict/{DICT.Z,DICT.INDEX.Z}. Project Gutenberg also has Roget's 1911 Thesaurus. The Project Gutenberg archive is at ftp://mrcnext.cso.uiuc.edu/pub/etext/. The Project Gutenberg archive collects public domain electronic books. For more information, write to Michael S. Hart, Professor of Electronic Text, Executive Director of Project Gutenberg Etext, Illinois Benedictine College, 5700 College Road, Lisle, IL 60532 or send email to hart@vmd.cso.uiuc.edu. For people without FTP, Austin Code Works sells floppy disks containing Roget's 1911 Thesaurus for $40.00. This money helps support the production of other useful texts, such as the 1913 Webster's dictionary. The Online Book Initiative maintains a text repository on ftp.std.com (a public access UNIX system, 617-739-WRLD). See the README file on obi.std.com:/obi/.

A list of 110,000 English words (one per line, in ASCII) is available in the PD1:<MSDOS.LINGUISTICS> directory on SIMTEL20 as the files WORDS1.ZIP, WORDS2.ZIP, WORDS3.ZIP, and WORDS4.ZIP. Although the list is in MS-DOS files, it can easily be used on other machines (but first you'll have to unzip the files on a DOS machine). The list includes inflected forms of the words, such as plural nouns and the -s, -ed, and -ing forms of verbs; thus the number of lexical stems in the list is considerably smaller than the total number of word forms. These files are available via FTP from WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL [192.88.110.20]. SIMTEL20 files are mirrored on wuarchive.wustl.edu.
