SUMMARY:School Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Alan Bundy: Can Computers Change their Minds?\n\nAutonomous agents require models of their environment in order to interpret\n\nsensory data and to make plans to achieve their goals, including anticipating the\n\nresults of the actions of themselves and other agents. These models must change\n\nwhen the environment changes, including their models of other agents, or when\n\ntheir goals change, since successful problem solving depends on choosing the\n\nright representation of the problem. We are especially interested in conceptual\n\nchange, i.e., a change of the language in which the model is expressed. Failures\n\nof reasoning can suggest repairs to faulty models. Such failures can, for\n\ninstance, take the form of inferring something false, failing to infer something\n\ntrue or inference just taking too long. I will illustrate the automated repair of\n\nfaulty models drawing both on work multi-agent planning and on the evolution of\n\ntheories of physics.\n\nhttps://www.csc.liv.ac.uk/research/seminars/abstract.php?id=440
