Foundational Points

Church Turing Hypothesis


Anything that is computable is computable
by a Turing Machine
Conversely, the set of functions computed
by a Turing Machine is the set of ALL and
ONLY computable functions
Turing Machine
Finite State Head (CPU)
Infinite Tape (Memory)
Foundational Points

(contd)
Physical Symbol System Hypothesis
(Newel and Simon)

For Intelligence to emerge it is enough to
manipulate symbols
Foundational Points

(contd)
Society of Mind (Marvin Minsky)


Intelligence emerges from the interaction
of very simple information processing units
Whole is larger than the sum of parts!
Foundational Points

(contd)
Limits to computability


Halting problem: It is impossible to
construct a Universal Turing Machine that
given any given pair <M, I> of Turing
Machine M and input I, will decide if M
halts on I
What this has to do with intelligent
computation? Think!
Foundational Points

(contd)
Limits to Automation



Godel Theorem: A “sufficiently powerful”
formal system cannot be BOTH complete
and consistent
“Sufficiently powerful”: at least as powerful
as to be able to capture Peano’s Arithmetic
Sets limits to automation of reasoning
Foundational Points

(contd)
Limits in terms of time and Space



NP-complete and NP-hard problems: Time
for computation becomes extremely large
as the length of input increases
PSPACE complete: Space requirement
becomes extremely large
Sets limits in terms of resources
Two broad divisions of
Theoretical CS

AI as the forcing function

simultaneously with several people
Compilers


Raising the level of the machine for better
man machine interface

Search
Search is present everywhere
Planning

(a) which block to pick, (b) which to stack, (c) which to unstack, (d)
whether to stack a block or (e) whether to unstack an already stacked
block. These options have to be searched in order to arrive at the right
sequence of actions.

Vision

A search needs to be carried out to find which point in the image of L
corresponds to which point in R. Naively carried out, this can become
an O(n2) process where n is the number of points in the retinal
images.

Robot Path Planning

searching amongst the options of moving Left, Right, Up or Down.
Additionally, each movement has an associated cost representing the
relative difficulty of each movement. The search then will have to find
the optimal, i.e., the least cost path.

Natural Language Processing

search among many combinations of parts of speech on the way to
deciphering the meaning. This applies to every level of processingsyntax, semantics, pragmatics and discourse.

Expert Systems
Search among rules, many of which can apply to a
situation:
If-conditions
the infection is primary-bacteremia
AND the site of the culture is one of the sterile sites
AND the suspected portal of entry is the gastrointestinal tract
THEN
there is suggestive evidence (0.7) that infection is bacteroid
(from MYCIN)

GGS Data Structures



Key data structures : Open List, Closed list
Nodes from open list are taken in some order, expanded and children
are put into open list and parent is put into closed list.
Assumption: Monotone restriction is satisfied. That is the estimated cost
of reaching the goal node for a particular node is no more than the cost
of reaching a child and the estimated cost of reaching the goal from the
child

GGS
OL is a queue
(BFS)
OL is stack
(DFS)
OL is accessed by using
a functions f= g+h
(Algorithm A)
BFS, DFS – Uninformed / Brute Force Search methods
Algorithm A

A function f is maintained with each node
f(n) = g(n) + h(n), n is the node in the open list

Node chosen for expansion is the one with least
f value

For BFS: h = 0, g = number of edges in the
path to S

For DFS: h = 0, g =
Algorithm A*

One of the most important advances in AI

g(n) = least cost path to n from S found so far

h(n) <= h*(n) where h*(n) is the actual cost of
optimal path to G(node to be found) from n
“Optimism
leads to optimality”

Search building blocks
State Space : Graph of states (Express constraints
and parameters of the problem)
 Operators : Transformations applied to the states.
 Start state : S (Search starts from here)
0
 Goal state : {G} - Search terminates here.
 Cost : Effort involved in using an operator.
 Optimal path : Least cost path
