Dr. Trujillo has authored over 30 peer-reviewed publications, including one book. His prevailing research focus has been common sense, thinking, intelligence, and teams, particularly within the context of advanced technologies and high risk settings. Select empirical milestones include his provision of:
- a team model responding to NASA human requirements for long duration space expeditions (LDSEs);
- a propositional solution to the interpretation of the collapse of the quantum wave function;
- a phenomenological diagnosis of the DARPA Machine Common Sense (MCS) program, and;
- two AI axioms — (a) “machines do not exist” and (b) “a machine is intelligent if it contains the basic elements of a system — and one corollary: “the measure of a machine’s intelligence corresponds to the scope of its equifinality.”
Dr. Trujillo is currently investigating possible correspondences between the fractal dimensionality of common sense and the prospect of fractal AI envisaged by computational scientists.
