IBM Engineer, Ryan Anderson came up with a SORTING HAT for his daughters.
The Sorting Hat is a sentient Hogwarts artefact that magically determines which of the four school Houses each new student belongs most to. These four Houses are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin.
Ryan Anderson's sorting hat listens to the wearer and using linguistic detection analytics software recognizes words and then reacts to them by sorting the wearer to a house of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The hat can talk and move its mouth and eyes.
This maser piece is based on the artificial intelligence of IBM's supercomputer WATSON.
As in the Harry Potter books the sorting is done on the basis of the characterstics of a student. The brave to Gryffindor, clever to Ravenclaw, Patient to Hufflepuff and cunning to Slytherin.
Anderson has tested this on his daughters, friends and a few celebrities and he says he created this for his daughters who are crazy about Harry Potter and wants them to know the power of engineering and how fun programming can be. He is now working on a Santa Claus themed project.
GO ANDERSON..!
Supercomputers are reading Harry Potter. Watson, IBM's super computer, has been reading JK Rowling's novel series and has made a few surprising discoveries...
Watson is a question answering computer system capable of answering questions posed in natural language.
Watson's task was to read the books, watch the movies and identify emotions and personalities. It used the Big 5 Test that tests extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness.
And Watson says that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named and our Neville Longbottom are very same.
Neville being the shy student of Gryffindor and Voldemort, The Dark Lord are both psychologically similar on open to experience and neuroticism. Both of them are low on open to experience and remarkably high on neuroticism.
IBM researcher Vinith Misra reasons "part of it is that Voldemort and Neville are very extreme characters."
Watson also says that Lord Voldemort and Harry share the anger levels and also Hermione is more confident than the Dark Lord.
The clever smart computer also points out that the transition of books to movies has lost the true essence of the Weasleys, especially Ron and Ginny.
