ges 51 Our goal in this chapter Ls to provide practical techniques for approximating the ideal pro- vided by algorithmic probability, based on what Pei Wang has termed the assumption of in- sufficient knowledge and resources tWan061, and assuming an AGI architecture that's at least vaguely humanlike in n

nic Atoms have natural names. For instance. the Schemallode corresponding to the ele- mentary schema function + may quite naturally be named "+". The NumberNode corresponding to the number .5 may naturally be named ".5", and the CharacterNode corresponding to the character c may naturally be named "c". Thes

y different yet both appear cognitively necessary. The argument for using probability in an AGI system is assailed by some AGI researchers such as Pei Wang, but we are swayed by the theoretical arguments in favor of probability theory's mathematically fundamental nature, as well as the massive demonstra

Atoms. Nodes, math- ematically, can be thought of as "0-ary" links. Some types of Nodes refer to external or mathematical entities (e.g. INordNode, NumberNode); others are purely abstract, e.g. a ConceptNode is characterized purely by the Links relating it to other atoms.
