However, if one represents low-level procedures like this using another method, e.g. learned cell assemblies in a

the question of programs in what programming language, and in this context we have made a fairly traditional choice, using a special language called Combo that is essentially a minor variant of LISP, and supplying Combo with a set of customized primitives intended to reduce the length of the typical p

its own hardware and software infrastructure. CogPrime represents procedures as programs in an internal programming language called "Combo." While Combo has a textual representation, described online at the OpenCog wiki, this isn't one of its more important aspects (and may be redesigned slightly or

an internal node of a program, can also live in its own Atom. For example. a number in a program tree corresponds to a NmnberNode; an argument in a Combo program already corresponds to some Atom; and an operator in a program can be wrapped up in a Schemallode all its own, and considered as a one-leaf

tricks, fetch_ball and triple_kick to be described below. in order to calibrate the size penalty function: 1. fetch_ball, which corresponds to the Combo program and_seg (goto (ball) grab (ball) goto (owner) drop) 2. triple_kick, if the stick is near the ball then kick 3 times with the left leg an

n x, two possibilities exist: EFTA00624385 33.6 Hierarchical Program Learning 239 • There is already a model for PredicateNodes at position x in Combo trees in the given population, in which case a population of PredicateNodes potentially living at that position is drawn from the known model, and

uesses produced by pure procedure learning methods), it may still be valuable to have this procedure in compact and rapidly executable form such as Combo provides. To proceed with the technical description of predicate schematization in CogPrime. we first need the notion of an "executable predicate".

tand: all else equal, a predicate embodied in a small Combo tree is better than a predicate embodied in a big one. There is some work hidden here in Combo tree reduction; ideally, one would like to find the smallest representation of a given Combo tree, but this is a computationally formidable problem
