Study Notes
Knowledge, Reasoning, and Planning
- Knowledge-based agents use knowledge and reasoning to plan actions.
- Agents use a knowledge base (KB) holding a collection of facts known as true sentences.
- Domain-independent algorithms find new sentences based on entailment.
Knowledge Representation
- Facts: Sentences known to be true.
- Possible worlds: Models where facts are consistent with known facts. Fewer possible worlds mean more certainty.
- Learning: Acquiring new facts, narrowing the range of possible worlds.
- Entailment: New sentences logically deduced from existing knowledge.
Knowledge-Based Agents
- Knowledge base (KB): A set of facts or sentences.
- Declarative approach: Defines the agent's knowledge, separating data and program (inference).
- Actions: Based on knowledge, using an objective function to select optimal actions (like maximizing utility or minimizing cost).
Generic Knowledge-based Agent
- Function KB-AGENT(percept): Returns an action based on the percept.
- Persistent KB: Knowledge base, containing information from previous percepts.
- Counter t: Tracks the sequence of time.
- Actions derived through queries from KB are recorded.
- Agent processes percepts and acts based on this knowledge.
Different Languages to Represent Knowledge
- Propositional Logic: Simple facts (true/false).
- First-Order Logic: More complex facts, incorporating objects, relations.
- Temporal Logic: Including time in the facts.
- Probability Theory: Representing uncertainty about facts with probabilities.
- Fuzzy Logic: Facts with degrees of truth.
- Natural Language: Using words to represent facts. Allows more flexibility.
Logical Agents
- Facts: Logical sentences known to be true.
- Inference: Discovering new entailed sentences.
- Implementation: Often uses Prolog; a declarative programming language.
LLMs - Large Language Models
- Store knowledge in parameters of deep neural networks.
- Process natural language input.
- Generate texts based on learned patterns, relationships, and facts.
Using Natural Language for Knowledge Representation
- Users' questions are translated into prompts.
- LLMs produce meaningful texts based on the prompt.
- Output is based on knowledge stored as parameters in deep networks.
LLM as a Knowledge-Based Agent
- Pretrained knowledge base: No updates during processing.
- Tokens generated: One each time based on the previous ones.
- Uses transformer attention mechanism for generation.
Probabilistic Reasoning
- Probabilistic reasoning replaces true/false with probabilities.
- Used for situations with uncertainty.
- Foundation for probabilistic decision-making and machine learning.
Logic (Propositional and First-Order)
- Formal system for representing and manipulating knowledge.
- Syntax: Rules for constructing valid sentences.
- Semantics: Describes the relationship between sentences and the real world.
Validity and Satisfiability
- Valid sentence: True in all models/worlds.
- Satisfiable sentence: True in some model/world.
- Unsatisfiable sentence: False in all models/worlds.
Possible Worlds, Models, and Truth Tables
- Model: A representation of the world with true/false status for propositional symbols.
- Truth table: Shows the truth value of complex sentences based on atomic sentence values.
Propositional Logic: Semantics
- Rules for evaluating truth values of sentences, considering the model in which they exist.
Logical Equivalence
- Two sentences are logically equivalent if they have the same truth value in all possible models.
Entailment
- KB ㅑ α if the sentence α logically follows from the knowledge base KB. (Meaning a is true in all models in which KB is true)
Inference
- Logical inference: Process for generating conclusions from premises or existing knowledge (KB).
- Sound inference: Only derives true sentences.
- Complete inference: Derives all sentences that follow logically from the KB.
Inference Rules
- Modus Ponens, And-elimination, And-introduction, Or-introduction, Double negative elimination, and Unit resolution. Used to derive new from existing sentences.
Resolution
- Resolution: Inference rule to derive new sentences. Often used to derive contradictions.
Complexity of Inference
- Propositional inference is co-NP-complete.
Example: Wumpus World
- A sample environment to illustrate how inference is used.
Summary
- Logical agents use inference on a knowledge base (KB) to make decisions.
- Key concepts: syntax, semantics, entailment, inference, soundness, completeness.
Limitations of Propositional Logic
- Handles simple facts and needs many statements to convey more complex information.
First-Order Logic
- Extends propositional logic with objects, relations, and quantifiers .
Syntax of FOL
- Formal language defining structure of sentences.
Universal Quantification
- All objects satisfy a particular condition.
Existential Quantification
- Atleast one object satisfies a particular condition.
Properties of Quantifiers
- Quantifiers can be expressed using each other with negation.
Equality
- Formal representation of equality between terms.
Example: The Kinship and Set Domains
- Illustrative examples for the usage of first order logic for real-world modeling.
Inference in FOL
- Different methods for inference in first order logic: reduction to propositional logic, direct inference on FOL.
