Text Mining and Image Anomaly Explanation with Machine Consciousness

In the present paper a series of implemented computer systems of information extraction for question answering that generate explanations of this extraction from text and image are presented.These computer generated explanations of the performance of a computer system may function as a criterion of the exhibition ofMachine Consciousness. Additionally the systems presented in the present paper may facilitate their communication with theirusers. Such communication is very useful for building the confidence of a user to a computer system. The main informationextraction method used by the systems described here is the one based on a finite state automaton. Following the presentation ofsystems that have been implemented by our group for various text bases a novel development is reported concerning the explanation of image anomalies. The presentation of our novel work is helped by an example of anomaly detection and explanation in modern paintings
