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

So, we want to have the option to use variables, or not. 20.3.3.2 An Example of Variable Elimination Consider the PredicateNode AND InheritanceLink X cat eats X mice Here we have used a syntactically sugared representation involving the variable X. How can we get rid of t

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

cognitive dynamics, especially ECAN. But then the MapEncapstdation MindAgent may do its pattern mining and recognize this map explicitly, and form a PredicateNode encapsulating it. This PredicateNode may then be used in PLN inference, conceptual blending, and so forth (e.g. helping with the formation of a con
