Artificial Intelligence 3451: UNIT: 05 Planning and Reasoning

This lecture discusses planning agents and how they solve problems. Planning agents represent problems as states, goals, and actions. They generate plans, which are sequences of actions, to achieve goals by moving between states. While problem-solving agents use search algorithms, planning agents must also consider how to decompose complex problems and determine relevant actions, as search alone may include many irrelevant steps. The lecture introduces planning agents and their core components of representation, planning, and reasoning about problems.

Planning and Reasoning
Lecture: 11

Problem solving so far
 Need to solve a problem
 Choose a representation
 Choose a heuristic
 Choose a search algorithm

 Can this scale up to more complex problems?


 Many irrelevant actions
 Human must provide the heuristic
 No knowledge on how to “decompose” or “nearly-decompose”
the problem

Planning Agent
Planning Agent
Introduction
 Like problem-solving agents, planning
agents have goals, states, and actions
 A plan is a sequence of actions to achieve
some goal
What is Planning
Representation of Planning
Why plan, when you can search?
