Unit 3: Common AI Problems

Notes
Example: A robotic arm has been provided the task of picking up a brick and positioning
it on its side in a dissimilar location. If the brick has been knocked over, what can the robot
perform to correct the problem? Will it still recognize which side should be facing up without
the aptitude of human sight? Should these deviations be inspected individually every time an
action has taken place?

The Predictive Problem

The Predictive Problem concerns with the advantages of predictions. Specifically, it is uncertain
if a specified prediction will cause a positive change in the surroundings.

Did u know? If the variation will not be positive, “either the laws or explanation of the
provided condition must be imperfect.”

Task Make distinction between the Representational Problem and the Inferential Problem.
Self Assessment

Fill in the blanks:

7. The problem of forcing a robot to acclimatize to these changes is the foundation of the
.................................. problem in artificial intelligence.
8. .................................. level interprets what type of information is being inspected.

9. .................................. level just decides in which format the information should be examined.
10. The .................................. problem recommends that one is never totally positive if a particular
rule will work.

11. The General Purpose of .................................. problem is to check the complete world of
things that are changeable.
12. The .................................. problem illustrates how an action can cause deviations inside its
environment.

3.4 Epistemological Problems

The epistemological portion of AI studies what types of facts regarding the world are accessible
to a viewer with specified opportunities to scrutinize, how these facts can be symbolized in the
memory of a computer, and what rules allow legitimate conclusions to be drawn from these
facts. It leaves away the heuristic problems of how to search spaces of probabilities and how to
match patterns.

Considering epistemological problems independently has the following benefits:
1. The same problems of what information is obtainable to an spectator and what conclusions
can be taken out from information arise in association with a variety of problem solving
tasks.
2. A single solution of the epistemological problems can assist a wide variety of heuristic
strategies to a problem.
