  1. Logic CPSC 386 Artificial Intelligence Ellen Walker Hiram College

  2. Knowledge Based Agents • Representation • How is the knowledge stored by the agent? • Procedural vs. Declarative • Reasoning • How is the knowledge used… • To solve a problem? • To generate more knowledge? • Generic Functions • TELL (add a fact to the knowledge base) • ASK (get next action based on info in KB)

  3. Hunt the Wumpus • Game is played in a MxN grid • One player, one wumpus, one or more pits • Goal: find gold while avoiding wumpus and pits • Percepts: • Glitter (gold is in this square) • Stench (wumpus is within 1 square N,E,S,W) • Breeze (pit is within 1 square N, E, S, W)

  4. Wumpus Example

  5. Examples of reasoning • If the player is in square (1, 0) and the percept is breeze, then there must be a pit in (0,0) or a pit in (2,0) or a pit in (1,1). • If the player is in (0,0) [and still alive], there is not a pit in (0,0). • If there is no breeze in (0,0), there is no pit in (0,1) • If there is also no breeze in (0,1) then there is no pit in (1,1). • Therefore, there must be a pit in (2,0)

  6. Formalizing Reasoning • Information is represented in sentences, which must have correct syntax ( 1 + 2 ) * 7 = 21 vs. 2 ) + 7 = * ( 1 21 • The meaning of a sentence (semantics) defines its truth in each model (possible world) • One sentence entails another sentence if the second one follows logically from the first; i.e. every model that has the first true, also has the second true. • Inference is the process of deriving a specific sentence from a KB (where the sentence must be entailed by the KB)

  7. Desirable properties of an inference algorithm • Soundness • Only sentences that are entailed by a KB will be derived by the inference algorithm • Completeness • Every sentence that is entailed by a KB will be derived by the inference algorithm (eventually) • If these properties are true, then every sentence derived from a true KB will be true in the world. • All reasoning can be done in a model, not the world!

  8. Propositional Logic • Syntax: Sentence -> true, false, P, Q, R … primitive sent. sentence not ( sentencesentence ) and ( sentencesentence ) or ( sentencesentence ) implies (if) ( sentence sentence ) if & only if (iff) ( sentence ) • Note: propositional logic can be directly implemented in hardware using logic gates for operations

  9. Propositional Logic Sentences • If there is a pit at [1,1], there is a breeze at [1,0] P11  B10 • There is a breeze at [2,2], if and only if there is a pit in the neighborhood B22  ( P21  P23  P12  P32 ) • There is no breeze at [2,2] B22

  10. Propositional Logic Inference • Question: Does KB entail S? • Method 1: Truth Table Entailment • Construct a truth table whose columns are all propositions used in the sentences in KB. • If S is true everywhere all sentences in KB are true, then KB entails S (otherwise not) • Method 2: Proof • Proof by deduction • Proof by contradiction • Etc.

  11. Truth Table Entailment A^C, C does not entail BC A,B, Entails AB

  12. Truth Table Entailment is… • Sound • by definition, since it directly implements the definition of entailment • Complete • Only when the KB (and therefore the truth table) is finite • Time consuming • The truth table size is 2number of statements, and we have to check every row!

  13. Rules for Deductive Proofs • Modus Ponens • Given: S1  S2 and S1, derive S2 • And-elimination • Given: S1  S2, derive S1 • Given: S1  S2, derive S2 • DeMorgan’s Law • Given ( A  B) derive A  B • Given ( A  B) derive A  B • More on p. 210

  14. Example Proof by Deduction • Knowledge S1: B22  ( P21  P23  P12  P32 ) rule S2: B22 observation • Inferences S3: (B22  (P21  P23  P12  P32 )) ((P21  P23  P12  P32 )  B22) [S1,bi elim] S4: ((P21  P23  P12  P32 )  B22) [S3, and elim] S5: (B22( P21  P23  P12  P32 )) [contrapos] S6: (P21  P23  P12  P32 ) [S2,S6, MP] S7: P21  P23  P12  P32 [S6, DeMorg]

  15. Evaluation of Deductive Inference (using p. 110 rules) • Sound • Yes, because the inference rules themselves are sound. (This can be proven using a truth table argument). • Complete • If we allow all possible inference rules, we’re searching in an infinite space, hence not complete • If we limit inference rules, we run the risk of leaving out the necessary one… • Monotonic • If we have a proof, adding information to the DB will not invalidate the proof

  16. Resolution • Resolution allows a complete inference mechanism (search-based) using only one rule of inference • Resolution rule: • Given: P1  P2  P3 … Pn, and P1  Q1 … Qm • Conclude: P2  P3 … Pn  Q1 … Qm Complementary literals P1 and P1 “cancel out” • Why it works: • Consider 2 cases: P1 is true, and P1 is false

  17. Resolution in Wumpus World • There is a pit at 2,1 or 2,3 or 1,2 or 3,2 • P21  P23  P12  P32 • There is no pit at 2,1 • P21 • Therefore (by resolution) the pit must be at 2,3 or 1,2 or 3,2 • P23  P12  P32

  18. Proof using Resolution • To prove a fact P, repeatedly apply resolution until either: • No new clauses can be added, (KB does not entail P) • The empty clause is derived (KB does entail P) • This is proof by contradiction: if we prove that KB  P derives a contradiction (empty clause) and we know KB is true, then P must be false, so P must be true! • To apply resolution mechanically, facts need to be in Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) • To carry out the proof, need a search mechanism that will enumerate all possible resolutions.

  19. Conjunctive Normal Form for B22  ( P21  P23  P12  P32 ) • Eliminate , replacing with two implications (B22  ( P21  P23  P12  P32 ))  ((P21  P23  P12  P32 )  B22) • Replace implication (A  B) by A B (B22  ( P21  P23  P12  P32 ))  ((P21  P23  P12  P32 )  B22) • Move  “inwards” (unnecessary parens removed) (B22  P21  P23  P12  P32 )  ((P21  P23  P12  P32 )  B22) 4. Distributive Law (B22  P21  P23  P12  P32 )  (P21  B22)  (P23  B22) (P12  B22) (P32  B22) (Final result has 5 clauses)

  20. Resolution Example • Given B22 and P21 and P23 and P32 , prove P12 • (B22  P21  P23  P12  P32 ) ; P12 • (B22  P21  P23  P32 ) ; P21 • (B22  P23  P32 ) ; P23 • (B22  P32 ) ; P32 • (B22) ; B22 • [empty clause]

  21. Mechanical Approach to Resolution • Use DFS in “clause space” • Initial state is Not (whatever is being proven) • Goal state is Empty clause • Next state generator finds all clauses in the KB [that include negations of one or more propositions in the current state]; next states are resolutions of those clauses with current state • Like all DFS, this is worst-case exponential (search all possible clauses)

  22. Evaluation of Resolution • Resolution is sound • Becase the resolution rule is true in all cases • Resolution is complete • Provided a complete search method is used to find the proof, if a proof can be found it will • Note: you must know what you’re trying to prove in order to prove it! • Resolution is exponential • The number of clauses that we must search grows exponentially… • If it didn’t we could use resolution to solve 3SAT in polynomial time!

  23. Horn Clauses • A Horn Clause is a CNF clause with exactly one positive literal • The positive literal is called the head • The negative literals are called the body • Prolog: head:- body1, body2, body3 … • English: “To prove the head, prove body1, …” • Implication: If (body1, body2 …) then head • Horn Clauses form the basis of forward and backward chaining • The Prolog language is based on Horn Clauses • Deciding entailment with Horn Clauses is linear in the size of the knowledge base

  24. Reasoning with Horn Clauses • Forward Chaining • For each new piece of data, generate all new facts, until the desired fact is generated • Data-directed reasoning • Backward Chaining • To prove the goal, find a clause that contains the goal as its head, and prove the body recursively • (Backtrack when you chose the wrong clause) • Goal-directed reasoning

  25. First Order Logic (ch. 8) • Has a greater expressive power than propositional logic • We no longer need a separate rule for each square to say which other squares are breezy/pits • Allows for facts, objects, and relations • In programming terms, allows classes, functions and variables
