If you think of questions that are appropriate for this FAQ, or would
like to improve an answer, please send email to the maintainers.
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.
Part 5 (WWW & FTP Resources):
[5-1] Weblogs, repositories, web directories and communities not
aimed primarily at researchers
[5-2] Repositories and web directories aimed primarily at researchers

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

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)

Subject: [5-4] Technical Reports available by WWW/FTP
This section lists the anonymous ftp sites for technical reports from
several universities and other organizations. Some of the sites
provide only an online catalog of technical reports, while the rest
make the actual reports available online. The email address listed is
that of the appropriate person to contact with questions about
ordering technical reports.
The main source of tech reports is now from Networked Computer Science
Technical Reference Library or NCSTRL (pronounced "ancestral").
It's home page is: http://www.ncstrl.org/
If that is a problem, you can go directly to:
http://cs-tr.cs.cornell.edu/
Other general locations for technical reports from several
universities include:
ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/doc/techreports/ [128.252.135.4]
cs-archive.uwaterloo.ca:/cs-archive/ (see Index for an index)
AKA watdragon.uwaterloo.ca [129.97.140.24]
The uwaterloo archive includes tech reports from the Logic Programming
and Artificial Intelligence Group (LPAIG) of the University of Waterloo.
There is also a WAIS server containing tech report abstracts that can be
searched. To use, create the file ~/wais-sources/cs-techreport-abstracts.src
containing
(:source
:version 3
:ip-address "130.194.74.201"
:ip-name "daneel.rdt.monash.edu.au"
:tcp-port 210
:database-name "cs-techreport-abstracts"
:cost 0.00
:cost-unit :free
:maintainer "wais@daneel.rdt.monash.edu.au")
and invoke your local wais client. To add to it, email abstracts of
your papers to wais@rdt.monash.edu.au in the following format:
%TI Title
%AU Author (use multiple %AU lines for multiple authors)
%PU Published In (citation information)
%AV Availability (e.g., ftp ftp://reports.adm.cs.cmu.edu/1992/)
%OR Organization (see cs-techreport-archives.src for institution codes)
%LT Local title (e.g., tech report number)
%DA Date (and, if you want, %MN Month, %YR Year)
%AB Abstract
If your papers are not available by FTP, you can use a %AV line such as:
%AV mail harry.bovik@cs.cmu.edu

Some AI authors have set up repositories of their own papers:
Matthew Ginsberg: ftp://t.stanford.edu/u/ftp/
Subject: [5-5] Technical resources for/by undergraduate students
Brainsciences http://www.brainsciences.com
A group of students at Brown University have created a web site to
"provide a forum for undergraduates to publish their work. We feature
reports of original research, book reviews, term papers, and other work
in a similar vein."
Subject: [5-6] Where can I get a machine readable dictionary, thesaurus, and
other text corpora?
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/. For more information, send email to
obi@world.std.com, write to Software Tool & Die, 1330 Beacon Street,
Brookline, MA 02146, or call 617-739-0202.
The CHILDES project at Carnegie Mellon University has a lot of data of
children speaking to adults, as well as the adult written and adult
spoken corpora from the CORNELL project. Contact Brian MacWhinney
<brian@andrew.cmu.edu> for more information.
The Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) has a Data
Collection Initiative. For more information, contact Donald Walker at
Bellcore, walker@flash.bellcore.com.
Two lists of common female first names (4967 names) and male first
names (2924 names) are available for anonymous ftp from

information.
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.
The Collins English Dictionary encoded as a Prolog fact base is
available from the Oxford Text Archive by anonymous ftp from
ftp://ota.ox.ac.uk/pub/ota/dicts/1192/ [129.67.1.165]

Chuck Wooters <wooters@icsi.berkeley.edu> has extracted the most
likely pronunciation for each of about 6100 words in the hand-labeled
TIMIT database, and made them available by anonymous ftp from
ftp.icsi.berkeley.edu:/pub/speech/TIMIT.mostlikely.Z.
A list of homophones from general American English is available by
anonymous ftp from svr-ftp.eng.cam.ac.uk:/comp.speech/data/ as the file
homophones-1.01.txt. To receive the list by email, send mail to
Evan.Antworth@sil.org. The list was compiled by Tony Robinson.
Sigurd P. Crossland <sig@seuss.vantage.gte.com> has been compiling
a dictionary of English words, including most common American words,
abbreviations, hyphenations, and even incorrect spellings. The most
recent version is available by anonymous ftp from
ftp://wocket.vantage.gte.com/pub/standard_dictionary/
The tar file includes 31 text files, one for each word-length from 2
to 32. The compressed tar file takes up just over 4mb of space, and
includes approximately 870,000 words.
WordNet is an English lexical reference system based on current
psycholinguistic theories of human lexical memory. It organizes nouns,
verbs and adjectives into synonym sets corresponding to lexical
concepts. The sets are linked by a variety of relations. Besides being
of scientific interest,
it makes a handy thesaurus. WordNet is available by anonymous ftp from
ftp://clarity.princeton.edu/pub/
If you retrieve a copy of wordnet by ftp, please send mail to
wordnet@princeton.edu.

MLnet Online Information Service
In 1988 the Special Interest Group on Machine Learning of the German
Society for Computer Science (GI e.V.) decided to establish a library
of PROLOG implementations of Machine Learning algorithms. By 1994 the
library had a sizable collection of GLPed PROLOG software. The site
has grown, and now, according to the webpage it "offers a growing
collection of ML information, datasets, software and pointers to other
ML resources." The homepage is at:
http://www.mlnet.org
