Assignment 3 – Planning and Machine Learning
Due: Week 10 - 10pm Friday 21 April
Marks: 10% of final assessment for COMP3411/9814 Artificial Intelligence
Question 1: Planning (4 marks)
Modify the simple planner from the week 7 lecture so that it can solve the planning
problem in the textbook, Poole and Mackworth Section 6.1. Here, there is a robot that
can move around an office building, pickup mail and deliver coffee.
Like the rubbish pickup problem, actions can be representation by a triple:
action(Action, State, NewState)
where the state of the world is represented by a quintuple:
state(RLoc, RHC, SWC, MW, RHM)
• RLoc - Robot Location,
• RHC - Robot Has Coffee,
• SWC - Sam Wants Coffee,
• MW - Mail Waiting,
• RHM - Robot Has Mail
You are required to replace the action specifications by a new set that specify the state
transitions for each of the actions:
• mc - move clockwise
• mcc - move counterclockwise
• puc - pickup coffee
• dc - deliver coffee
• pum - pickup mail
• dm - deliver mail.
Do not alter the planner code, only the action clauses should be replaced.
You should only need to write one clause for each action, however, you might need
some addition clauses to help with the mc and mcc actions. Think about how to
represent the room layout.
Your program should be able to satisfy queries such as:
- id_plan(
state(lab, false, true, false, false),
state(_, _, false, _, _),
Plan).
Plan = [mc, mc, puc, mc, dc]
which asks the robot to get Sam coffee. Note that the values of the state variables, RHC,
SWC, MW, RHM are boolean and we’ve used the constants true and false, to represent
the boolean values. The initial state in this example has the robot in the lab, the robot
does not have any coffee, Sam wants coffee, there is no mail waiting and the robot does
not have any mail. The goal state is where Sam no longer wants coffee. Note that the
anonymous variable, ‘_’, indicates that we don’t care what the other values are.
To test your action specifications, think about how you would ask the robot to pickup
mail. What about if Sam want coffee and there was mail waiting?
Question 2: Inductive Logic Programming (6 marks)
Duce is a program devised by Muggleton [1] to perform learning on a set of
propositional clauses. The system includes 6 operators that transform pairs of clauses
into a new set of clauses. Your task is to write Prolog programs to implement 3 of the 6
operators. One is given as an example to get you started.
Your answers should preserve the order of literals in each clause, as given. Any new
literals should be appended to the end of the clause.
Inter-construction. This transformation takes two rules, with different heads, such as
x <- [b, c, d, e]
y <- [a, b, d, f]
and replaces them with rules
x <- [c, e, z]
y <- [a, f, z]
z <- [b, d]
i.e. we find the intersection of the bodies of the first two clauses, invent a new predicate
symbol, z, and create the clause z ← [b, d]. Create two new clauses which are the
original clauses rewritten to replace [b, d] by z.
To make processing the rules easier, we represent the body of the clause by a list and we
define the operator <- to mean “implied by” or “if’.
A Prolog program to implement inter-construction is given as an example to give you
hints about how to write the two operators.
:- op(300, xfx, <-).
inter_construction(C1 <- B1, C2 <- B2, C1 <- Z1B, C2 <- Z2B, C <- B) :-
C1 \= C2,
intersection(B1, B2, B),
B \= [],
gensym(z, C),
subtract(B1, B, B11),
subtract(B2, B, B12),
append(B11, [C], Z1B),
append(B12, [C], Z2B).
First, we define <- as an operator that will allow us to use the notation x <- y. The
program uses Prolog built-in predicates to perform set operations on lists and to
generate new symbols.
1. The first line the program assumes that the first two arguments are given as
propositional clauses. The remaining three arguments are the output clauses, as in the
example above.
2. inter_construction operates on two clauses that gave different heads, i.e. C1 \= C2.
3. We then find the interaction of the bodies of the clauses and call it, B.
4. gensym is a builtin predicate that creates a new name from a base name. So
gensym(z, C) binds C to z1. Every subsequent call to gensym, with base z, will
create names, z2, z3, …. Calling reset_gensym will restart the numbering sequence.
5. At this point the last argument C <- B = z1<-[b, d] because C is bound to z1 and
B is the intersection [b, d].
6. The bodies Z1B and Z2B, are obtained by subtracting the intersection, B, from B1
and B2 and appending the single element [C]. So we can run the program:
?- inter_construction(x <- [b, c, d, e], y <- [a, b, d, f], X, Y, Z).
X = x<-[c, e, z1],
Y = y<-[a, f, z1],
Z = z1<-[b, d].
obtaining the desired result.
You will write programs for the other three operators, defined below. These programs
can be created from the built-in predicates used in the inter-construction code. So all
you have to do is work out how to combine them. The only other builtin predicate you
may need is to test if one list is a subset of another with subset(X, Y), where X is a
subset of Y.
You can assume that the inputs will always be valid clauses and the lists will always be
non-empty, i.e. with at least one element.
Question 2.1 (2 marks):
Intra-construction. This transformation takes two rules, with the same head, such as
x <- [b, c, d, e]
x <- [a, b, d, f]
and replaces the with rules
x <- [b, d, z]
z <- [c, e]
z <- [a, f]
That is, we merge the two, x, clauses, keeping the intersection and adding a new
predicate, z, that distributes the differences to two new clauses.
- intra_construction(x <- [b, c, d, e], x <- [a, b, d, f], X, Y, Z).
X = x<-[b, d, z1],
Y = z1<-[c, e],
Z = z1<-[a, f].
The predicate should fail if there is no intersection between the two clauses.
Question 2.2 (2 marks):
Absorption. This transformation takes two rules, with the different heads, such as
x <- [a, b, c, d, e]
y <- [a, b, c]
and replaces the with rules
x <- [d, e, y]
y <- [a, b, c]
Note that the second clause is unchanged. This operator checks to see if the body of one
clause is a subset of the other. If it is, the common elements can be removed from the
larger clause and the head of the smaller one appended to the larger one.
- absorption(x <- [a, b, c, d, e], y <- [a, b, c], X, Y).
X = x<-[d, e, y],
Y = y<-[a, b, c].
The predicate should fail if there is the body of the second clause is not a subset of the
body of the first.
Question 2.3 (2 marks):
Truncation. This is the simplest transformation. It takes two rules that have the same
head and simply drops the differences to leave just one rule. For example
x <- [a, b, c, d]
x <- [a, c, j, k]
are replaced by
x <- [a, c]
That is, the body of the new clause is just the intersection of the bodies of the input
clauses.
- truncation(x <- [a, b, c, d], x <- [a, c, j, k], X).
X = x<-[a, c].
The complete Duce algorithm performs a search, looking for combination of these
operators that will lead to the greater compression over the database of examples. Here
compression is measured by the reduction in the number of symbols in the database.
You don’t have to worry about the search algorithm, just implement the operators, as
above.
