Study Notes

Learning Mechanisms

Reflex agents typically do not learn and rely on pre-defined rules
Reflex agents with state maintain an internal state representation and can adapt by updating it based on new information
Model-based reflex agents use internal state representation to make decisions and can update it based on experience
Goal-based agents maintain internal goals and take actions to achieve them, and can incorporate learning algorithms to refine goal representation and strategies
Utility-based agents evaluate actions based on utility and select the action with the highest expected utility, and can incorporate learning algorithms to estimate utilities

Agent Types

Simple reflex agents select actions based solely on the current percept and predefined rules
Model-based reflex agents maintain an internal model of the world and use it to plan and reason about actions
Goal-based agents have explicit goals or objectives and take actions to achieve those goals
Utility-based agents evaluate actions based on their expected utility or value
Learning agents improve their performance over time by learning from experience and adapting their behavior based on feedback from the environment

Machine Learning

Machine learning can be useful in tasks requiring knowledge detection, classification, recognition, identification, and prediction
There are three types of feedback that can accompany the inputs, which determine the three main types of learning: supervised, unsupervised, and utility-based
Supervised learning involves learning from input-output pairs to map inputs to outputs
Unsupervised learning involves processing data to learn patterns without explicit feedback
Utility-based learning involves learning from a series of reinforcements, such as rewards and punishments

Agents and Environments

An agent is anything that can perceive its environment through sensors and act upon that environment through actuators
An environment is everything outside the agent that can be sensed and affected by the agent's actions
Agents and environments interact continuously, with the agent receiving input from the environment through sensors and producing output through actuators

Rationality and PEAS

Rationality in AI refers to the ability of an agent to select actions that maximize its expected performance measure, given its knowledge and beliefs about the world
PEAS stands for Performance measure, Environment, Actuators, and Sensors, and is a framework used to define the design specifications of an intelligent agent

Environment Types

Environments can be categorized into different types based on their characteristics:
- Fully observable vs. partially observable
- Deterministic vs. stochastic
- Episodic vs. sequential

Learning Approaches

Relevance-based learning (RBL) uses prior knowledge to identify relevant attributes and formulate a hypothesis
Knowledge-based inductive learning (KBIL) finds inductive hypotheses that explain sets of observations with the help of background knowledge
