    Study Notes

    Observability in Problem Solving

    • Fully Observable Problems: All necessary information is available, making problem-solving easier.
    • Partially Observable Problems: Some information is missing, requiring educated guesses and inference.
    • Impact of Observability on Problem-Solving Approaches:
      • Fully Observable: Easier to understand and solve due to complete information.
      • Partially Observable: Requires flexibility, additional information gathering, and adaptive strategies.
    • Strategies for Tackling Partially Observable Problems:
      • Look for more information, make educated guesses, and use tools to fill in gaps.
    • Example Applications of Observability:
      • Finance: Analysts monitor stock data to make investment decisions.
      • Healthcare: Doctors use medical imaging to diagnose diseases.
      • Manufacturing: Engineers monitor production lines to improve efficiency and quality.

    Agent Interactions

    • Single-Agent Problems: One agent makes decisions.
    • Multi-Agent Problems: Multiple agents collaborate, often necessary for complex problems.
    • Types of Interactions Between Agents:
      • Agents can cooperate or compete, similar to teamwork or competitive games.
    • Impact of Agent Interactions on Problem-Solving Strategies:
      • Collaboration among agents leads to more thorough exploration and understanding of problems.
    • Examples of Agent Interactions:
      • Customer service, sales, financial advising, and real estate involve interactions where agents assist clients.

    Determinism and Stochasticity

    • Concepts:
      • Determinism: Events are predictable, determined by prior causes.
      • Stochasticity: Events are random and unpredictable.
    • Importance in Problem-Solving:
      • Determinism: Helps in making accurate predictions and informed decisions.
      • Stochasticity: Requires flexibility and adaptability due to randomness and uncertainty.
