What is the primary objective of the agent in a problem-solving scenario?
- To minimize the cost of the path to the goal
- To find a sequence of actions that reaches the goal (correct)
- To evaluate the performance measure of the agent
- To compare the performance of different agents
What is one of the factors that defines the performance measure of an agent?
What is one of the factors that defines the performance measure of an agent?
- The time taken to reach the goal
- The complexity of the goal
- The expensiveness of the path to the goal (correct)
- The number of actions required to reach the goal
What is the implication of an 'expensive' path to the goal?
What is the implication of an 'expensive' path to the goal?
- The agent requires more actions to reach the goal
- The agent incurs a higher cost to reach the goal (correct)
- The agent takes more time to reach the goal
- The agent has a lower chance of reaching the goal

Study Notes
Performance Measure (Utility Function)
- A performance measure is an objective criterion to evaluate an agent's behavior, determining its success.
- The primary goal is to take the right action that maximizes success.
Performance Measure Criteria
- The performance measure is defined by two key criteria:
- (a) Reaching the goal: The ability of the agent to achieve the desired goal.
- (b) Path cost: The expenses or costs incurred while following the path to the goal.
