Yes – Wumpus is essentially a natural featureExploring a wumpus worldExploring a wumpus worldExploring a wumpus worldExploring a wumpus worldExploring a Wumpus worldIf the Wumpus werehere, stench should be here. Therefore it is here.Since, there is no breezehere, the pit must be thereWe need rather sophisticated reasoning here!Exploring a wumpus worldExploring a wumpus worldExploring a wumpus worldLogic •We used logical reasoning to find the gold.•Logics are formal languages for representing information such that conclusions can be drawn•Syntax defines the sentences in the language•Semantics define the "meaning" of sentences;–i.e., define truth of a sentence in a world•E.g., the language of arithmetic–x+2 ≥ y is a sentence; x2+y > {} is not a sentence syntax– –x+2 ≥ y is true in a world where x = 7, y = 1–x+2 ≥ y is false in a world where x = 0, y = 6semanticsEntailment•Entailment means that one thing follows from another:KB ╞ α•Knowledge base KB entails sentence α if and only if α is true in all worlds where KB is true–E.g., the KB containing “the Giants won and the Reds won” entails “The Giants won”.–E.g., x+y = 4 entails 4 = x+yModels•Logicians typically think in terms of models, which are formally structured worlds with respect to which truth can be evaluated•We say m is a model of a sentence α if α is true in m•M(α) is the set of all models of α•Then KB ╞ α iff M(KB)  M(α)–E.g. KB = Giants won and Redswon α = Giants won•Think of KB and α as collections of constraints and of models m as possible states. M(KB) are the solutions KB and M(α) the solutions to α. Then, KB ╞ α when all solutions to KB are also solutions to α.Entailment in the wumpus world•Consider possible models for KB assuming only pits and a reduced Wumpus world•Situation after detecting nothing in [1,1], moving right, breeze in [2,1]Wumpus modelsAll possible models in this reduced Wumpus world.Wumpus models•KB = all possible wumpus-worlds consistent with the observations and the “physics” of the Wumpus world.Wumpus modelsα1 = "[1,2] is safe", KB ╞ α1, proved by model checkingWumpus modelsα2 = "[2,2] is safe", KB ╞ α2Inference Procedures•KB ├i α = sentence α can be derived from KB by procedure i•Soundness: i is sound if whenever KB ├i α, it is also true that KB╞ α (no wrong inferences, but maybe not all inferences)•Completeness: i is complete if whenever KB╞ α, it is also true that KB ├i α (all inferences can be made, but maybe some wrong extra ones as well)Propositional logic: Syntax•Propositional logic is the simplest logic – illustrates basic ideas•The proposition symbols P1, P2 etc are sentences–If S is a sentence, S is a sentence (negation)–If S1 and S2 are sentences, S1  S2 is a sentence (conjunction)–If S1 and S2 are sentences, S1  S2 is a sentence (disjunction)–If S1 and S2 are sentences, S1  S2 is a sentence (implication)–If S1 and S2 are sentences, S1  S2 is a sentence (biconditional)Propositional logic: SemanticsEach model/world specifies true or false for each proposition symbolE.g. P1,2 P2,2 P3,1 false true falseWith these symbols, 8 possible models, can be enumerated automatically.Rules for evaluating truth with respect to a model m:S is true iff S is false S1  S2 is true iff S1 is true and S2 is trueS1  S2 is true iff S1is true or S2 is trueS1  S2 is true iff S1 is false or S2 is true i.e., is false iff S1 is true and S2 is falseS1  S2is true iff S1S2 is true andS2S1 is trueSimple recursive process evaluates an arbitrary sentence, e.g.,P1,2  (P2,2  P3,1) = true  (true  false) = true  true = trueTruth tables for connectivesOR: P or Q is true or both are true.XOR: P or Q is true but not both.Implication is always truewhen the premises are False!Wumpus world sentencesLet Pi,j be true if there is a pit in [i, j].Let Bi,j be true if there is a breeze in [i, j].start:  P1,1 B1,1 B2,1•"Pits cause breezes in adjacent squares"B1,1  (P1,2  P2,1)B2,1  (P1,1  P2,2  P3,1)Inference by enumeration•Enumeration of all models is sound and complete. •For n symbols, time complexity is O(2n)...•We need a smarter way to do inference!•In particular, we are going to infer new logical sentences from the data-base and see if they match a query.Logical equivalence•To manipulate logical sentences we need some
