Study Notes
Propositional Symbols
- Propositional symbols are used to represent propositions or statements that can be either true or false.
- Examples of propositional symbols include GilderoyGryffindor, GilderoyHufflepuff, GilderoyRavenclaw, and GilderoySlytherin.
Knowledge and Logic
- Knowledge-based agents are agents that reason by operating on internal representations of knowledge.
- Knowledge representation languages are used to represent knowledge.
Inference Rules
- Modus Ponens: if α → β, and α, then β.
- And Elimination: if α ∧ β, then β.
- Double Negation Elimination: ¬¬α → α.
Propositional Logic
- A sentence is an assertion about the world in a knowledge representation language.
- Propositional logic uses propositional symbols and logical connectives.
- Logical connectives include ¬ (not), ∧ (and), ∨ (or), → (implication), and ⇔ (biconditional).
Model
- A model is an assignment of a truth value to every propositional symbol (a "possible world").
Inference by Resolution
- Resolution is a method of inference that involves adding clauses to a knowledge base.
First-order Logic
- First-order logic uses variables, constants, predicates, and functions to represent knowledge.
- Examples of constants include Minerva, Pomona, and Horace.
- Examples of predicates include Person, House, and BelongsTo.
Universal Quantification
- Universal quantification uses the symbol ∀ to indicate "for all".
- The notation ∀x. --- means "for all x, ---".
