Current and Future Challenges in Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop 22282)

Abstract

Knowledge Representation and Reasoning is a central, longstanding, and active area of Artificial Intelligence. Over the years it has evolved significantly; more recently it has been challenged and complemented by research in areas such as machine learning and reasoning under uncertainty. In July 2022,sser a Dagstuhl Perspectives workshop was held on Knowledge Representation and Reasoning. The goal of the workshop was to describe the state of the art in the field, including its relation with other areas, its shortcomings and strengths, together with recommendations for future progress. We developed this manifesto based on the presentations, panels, working groups, and discussions that took place at the Dagstuhl Workshop. It is a declaration of our views on Knowledge Representation: its origins, goals, milestones, and current foci; its relation to other disciplines, especially to Artificial Intelligence; and on its challenges, along with key priorities for the next decade.

Improving the Performance of Complex Agent Plans Through Reinforcement Learning

Authors: Matteo Leonetti and Luca Iocchi

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10081, Cognitive Robotics (2010)

Abstract

Agent programming in complex, partially observable, and stochastic domains usually requires a great deal of understanding of both the domain and the task in order to provide the agent with the knowledge necessary to act effectively. While symbolic methods allow the designer to specify declarative knowledge about the domain, the resulting plan can be brittle since it is difficult to supply a symbolic model that is accurate enough to foresee all possible events in complex environments, especially in the case of partial observability. Reinforcement Learning (RL) techniques, on the other hand, can learn a policy and make use of a learned model, but it is difficult to reduce and shape the scope of the learning algorithm by exploiting a priori information. We propose a methodology for writing complex agent programs that can be effectively improved through experience.We show how to derive a stochastic process from a partial specification of the plan, so that the latter’s perfomance can be improved solving a RL problem much smaller than classical RL formulations. Finally, we demonstrate our approach in the context of Keepaway Soccer, a common RL benchmark based on a RoboCup Soccer 2D simulator.
