  7. Valid formulas Satisfiable formulas Unsatisfiable formulas Entailment and models • Ic(f): cognitive interpretation of formula f • Ih(f): Herbrand interpretation of formula f • Herbrand model: • A Herbrand interpretation Ih(f) of formula f is a Herbrand model Mh(f) iff f is true in Mh(f) • Entailment |=: • f |= f’ iff: Ic, (f true in Ic(f)  f´true in Ic(f’)) • Logical equivalence : • f  f’ iff f |= f’ and f’ |= f • f valid (or tautology) iff true in all Ih(f), ex, a  a • f satisfiable iff true in at least one Ih(f) • f unsatisfiable (or contradiction) iff false in all Ih(f), ex, a  a • Theorems: • f |= f’ iff: Mh(f) Mh(f´) • f |= f’ iff: ff´is satisfiable • f |= f iff: ff´is unsatisfiable (since ff´  (ff´)  (ff´)

  8. Cognitive x Herbrand Semantics • Cognitive semantics: • Knowledge engineer and application domain dependent symbolic convention • Truth values associated to constant symbols and formulas indirectly via knowledge engineer beliefs about atomic and compound properties of the real world domain being represented • Allows deductively deriving new properties n1, … , ni about entities of this domain from other, given properties g1, …, gj • Herbrand semantics: • Knowledge engineer and application domain independent syntactical convention • Truth values associated directly to constant symbols and formulas • Relies on connective truth-table to deduct truth value of formula f from those of its constant symbols • Allows testing inference engine reasoning soundness and completeness independently of any specific knowledge base or real world referential

  9. Logic-Based Agent Given B as axiom, formula f is a theorem of L? i.e., B |=L f ? • Strenghts: • Reuse results and insights about correct reasoning that matured over 23 centuries • Semantics (meaning) of a knowledge base can be represented formally as syntax, a key step towards automating reasoning Environment Sensors Ask Inference Engine: Theorem Prover for Logic L Knowledge Base B:Domain Model in Logic L Tell Retract Actuators • Relies on: • Mh(f)  Mh(f´) ? (model checking) • ff´is satisfiable ? (boolean CSP search) • ff´is unsatisfiable ? (refutation proof)

  12. Idea: KB |= f ? KB0 = KB Apply inference rule: KBi |= g Update KBi+1 = KBi g Iterate until f  KBkor until f  KBn and KBn+1 = KBn Transforms proving KB |= f into search problem At each step: Which inference rule to apply? To which sub-formula of f? Example proof: KB0 = P1,1  (B1,1  P1,2  P2,1)  (B2,1  P1,1  P2,2  P3,1)  B1,1  B2,1 Query: (P1,2  P2,1) Cognitive interpretation: BX,Y: agent felt breeze in coordinate (X,Y) PX,Y: agent knows there is a pit in coordinate (X,Y) Apply R8 to B1,1  P1,2  P2,1KB1 = KB0  (B1,1  (P1,2  P2,1))  ((P1,2  P2,1)  B1,1) Apply R6 to last sub-formula KB2 = KB1  (B1,1  (P1,2  P2,1)) Apply R14 to B1,1 andlast sub-formula KB3 = KB2  (P1,2  P2,1) Multiple inference rule application

  13. Resolution and factoring • Repeated application of only two inference rules: • resolution and factoring • More efficient than using multiple inference rules • search space with far smaller branching factor • Refutation proof: • Derive false from KB  Query • Requires both in normal form (conjunctive or implicative) • Example proof in conjunctive normal form:

  14. Resolution strategies • Search heuristics for resolution-based theorem proving • Two heuristic classes: • Choice of clause pair to resolve inside current KB • Choice of literals to resolve inside chosen clause pair • Unit preference: • Prefer pairs with one unit clause (i.e., literals) • Rationale: generates smaller clauses, eliminates much literal choice in pair • Unit resolution: turn preference into requirement • Set of support: • Define small subset of initial clauses as initial “set of support” • At each step: • Only consider clause pairs with one member from current set of support • Add step result to set of support • Efficiency depend on cleverness of initial set of support • Common domain-independent initial set of support: negated query • Beyond efficiency, results in easier to understand, goal-directed proofs • Linear resolution: • At each step only consider pairs (f,g) where f is either: • (a) in KB0, or • (b) an ancestor of g in the proof tree • Input resolution: • Specialization of linear resolution excluding (b) case • Generates spine-looking proofs trees

  15. FCPL theorem proving as boolean CSP exhaustive global backtracking search • Put f = KB  Query in conjunctive normal form • Try to prove it unsatisfiable • Consider each literal in f as a boolean variable • Consider each clause in f as a constraint on these variables • Solve the underlying boolean CSP problem by using: • Exhaustive global backtracking search • of all complete variable assignments • showing nonesatisfies all constraint in f • Initial state: empty assignment of pre-ordered variables • Search operator: • Tentative assignment of next yet unassigned variable Li (ith literal in f) • Apply truth table definitions to propagate constraints in which Li appears (clauses of f involving L) • If propagation violates one constraint, backtrack on Li • If propagation satisfies all constraints: • iterate on Li+1 • if Li was last literal in f, fail, KB  Query satisfiable, and thus KB | Query

  16. V = [0,?,?] C = [1,?,?,1,?] V = [1,?,?] C = [0,?,?,?,?] V = [0,1,?] C = [1,0,?,1,1] V = [0,0,?] C = [1,1,?,1,0] FCPL theorem proving as boolean CSP backtracking search: example • Variables = {B1,1 , P1,2, P2,1} • Constraints: {B1,1 , P1,2  B1,1 , P2,1  B1,1, B1,1  P1,2 P2,1 , P1,2} V = [?,?,?] C = [?,?,?,?,?] false false false

  17. DPLL algorithm • General purpose CSP backtracking search very inefficient for proving large CFPL theorems • Davis, Putnam, Logemann & Loveland algorithm (DPPL): • Specialization of CSP backtracking search • Exploits specificity of CFPL theorem proving recast as CSP search • To apply search completeness preserving heuristics • Concepts: • Pure symbol S: yet unassigned variable positive in all clauses or negated in all clauses • Unit clause C: clause with all but one literal already assigned to false • Heuristics: • Pure symbol heuristic: assign pure symbols first • Unit propagation: • Assign unit clause literals first • Recursively generate new ones • Early termination heuristic: • After assigning Li = true, propagate Cj = trueCj | Li  Cj (avoiding truth-table look-ups) • Prune sub-tree below any node where Cj | Cj = false • Clause caching

  18. Satisfiability of formula as boolean CSP heuristic local stochastic search • DPLL is not restricted to proving entailment by proving unsatisfiability • It can also prove satisfiability of a FCPL formula • Many problems in computer science and AI can be recast as a satisfiability problem • Heuristic local stochastic boolean CSP search more space-scalable than DPLL for satisfiability • However since it is notexhaustive search, it cannotprove unsatisfiability (and thus entailment), only strongly suspect it • WalkSAT • Initial state: random assignment of pre-ordered variables • Search operator: • Pick a yet unsatisfied clause and one literal in it • Flip the literal assignment • At each step, randomly chose between to picking strategies: • Pick literal which flip results in steepest decrease in number of yet unsatisfied clauses • Random pick

  19. Domain Specific • Agent Decision Problem • Search Model: • State data structure • Successor function • Goal function • Heuristic function Domain Independent Search Algorithm Reasoning Component Developer Agent Decision Problem Agent Application Developer • Domain Independent Inference Engine Search Model • State data structure • Successor function • Goal function • Heuristic function • Domain Specific • Knowledge Base Model: • Logic formulas true  d f  g  h  c ... Direct x indirect use of search for agent reasoning

  20. Horn CPL reasoning • Practical limitations of FCPL reasoning: • For experts in most application domain (medicine, law, business, design, troubleshooting): • Non-intuitiveness of FCPL formulas for knowledge acquisition • Non-intuitiveness of proofs generated by FCPL algorithms for knowledge validation • Theoretical limitation of FCPL reasoning: • exponential in the size of the KB • Syntactic limitation to Horn clauses overcome both limitations: • KB becomes base of simple rules If p1 and ... and pn then c, with logical semantics p1 ...  pn c • Two algorithms are available, rule forward chaining and rule backward chaining, that are: • Intuitive • Sound and complete for HCPL • Linear in the size of the KB • For most application domains, loss of expressiveness can be overcome by addition of new symbols and clauses: • ex, FCPL KB1 = p  q  c  d has no logical equivalent in HCPL in terms of alphabet {p,q,c,d} • However KB2 = (p q  notd  c)  (p q  notc  d)  (c  notc  false)  (d  notd  false) is an HCPL formula logically equivalent to KB1

  21. Propositional forward chaining • Repeated application of modus ponens until reaching a fixed point • At each step i: • Fire all rules (i.e., Horn clauses with at least one positive and one negative literal) with all premises already in KBi • Add their respective conclusions to KBi+1 • Fixed point k reached when KBk =KBk-1 • KBk = {f | KB0 |= f}, i.e.,all logical conclusions of KB0 • If f  KBk, then KB0 |= f, otherwise, KB0 | f • Naturally data-driven reasoning: • Guided by fact (axioms) in KB0 • Allows intuitive, direct implementation of reactive agents • Generally inefficient for: • Inefficient for specific entailment query • Cumbersome for deliberative agent implementations • Builds and-or proof graph bottom-up

  29. Propositional backward chaining • Repeated application of resolution using: • Unit input resolution strategy with negated query as initial set of support • At each step i: • Search KB0 for clause of the form p1... pn g to resolve with clause g popped from the goal stack • If there are several ones, pick one, push p1... pn to goal stack, and push other ones to alternative stack for consideration upon backtracking • If there are none, backtrack (i.e., pop alternative stack) • Terminates: • Successfully when goal stack is empty • As failure when goal stack is non empty but alternative stack is • Naturally goal-driven reasoning: • Guided by goal (theorem to prove) • Allows intuitive, direct implementation of deliberative agents • Generally: • Inefficient for deriving all logical conclusions from KB • Cumbersome implementation of reactive agents • Builds and-or proof graph top-down

  41. Limitations of propositional logic • Ontological: • Cannot represent knowledge intentionally • No concise representation of generic relations (generic in terms of categories, space, time, etc.) • ex, no way to concisely formalize the Wumpus world rule:“at any step during the exploration, the agent perceiving a stench makes him knows that there is a Wumpus in a location adjacent to his” • Propositional logic: • Requires conjunction of 100,000 equivalences to represent this rule for an exploration of at most 1000 steps of a cavern size 10x10 • (stench1_1_1  wumpus1_1_2  wumpus1_2_1)  ... ...  (stench1000_1_1  wumpus100_1_2  wumpus1000_2_1)  ......  (stench1_10_10  wumpus1_9_10  wumpus1_10_9)  ... ...  (stench1000_10_10  wumpus100_9_10  wumpus1000_9_10) • Epistemological: • Agent always completely confident of its positive or negative beliefs • No explicit representation of ignorance (missing knowledge) • Only way to represent uncertainty is disjunction • Once held, agent belief cannot be questioned by new evidence (ex, from sensors)
