Combining belief and utility in a structured connectionist agent architecture
نویسندگان
چکیده
The SHRUTI model demonstrates how a system of simple, neuron-like elements can encode a large body of relational causal knowledge and provide the basis for rapid inference. Here we show how a representation of utility can be integrated with the existing representation of belief, such that the resulting architecture can be used to reason about values and goals and thereby contribute to decision-making and planning.

SHRUTI-agent: a structured connectionist model of decision-making
A neurally plausible connectionist model of decisionmaking, based on the SHRUTI architecture, is being devloped. Toward this end, issues of appropriate connectionist representations for belief and utility, necessary control mechanisms, and reinforcement-based learning are addressed.
متن کاملA Hybrid Connectionist and BDI Architecture for Modeling Embedded Rational Agents
In this paper, our ongoing work on a hybrid, connectionist and belief-desire-intention (BDI) based, ratiohal agent architecture is described. The architecture makes specific commitments in order to achieve a harmony among the tasks of reasoning and acting. The architecture uses a bottom-up learning strategy to acquire rules for reactive behavior. Embedded Agents: From Reactive to
متن کاملHybrid Thematic Role Processor: Symbolic Linguistic Relations Revised by Connectionist Learning
In linguistics, the semantic relations between words in a sentence are accounted for, inter alia, as the assignment of thematic roles, e.g. AGENT, INSTRUMENT, etc. As in predicate logic, simple linguistic expressions are decomposed into one predicate (often the verb) and its arguments. The predicate assigns thematic roles to the arguments, so that each sentence has a thematic grid, a structure ...
متن کاملA constructivist connectionist model of transitions on false-belief tasks.
How do children come to understand that others have mental representations, e.g., of an object's location? Preschoolers go through two transitions on verbal false-belief tasks, in which they have to predict where an agent will search for an object that was moved in her absence. First, while three-and-a-half-year-olds usually fail at approach tasks, in which the agent wants to find the object, c...
متن کاملEmotion and Learning: Solving Delayed Reinforcement Learning Problem Using Emotionally Reinforced Connectionist Network
The DRL (Delayed Reinforcement Learning) problem is classical in Reinforcement Learning theory. There were several agent architectures solving that problem including some connectionist architectures. This work describes an early connectionist agent architecture, the CAA architecture, that solved the problem using the concept of emotion it its learning rule. The architecture is compared to anoth...
