  1. CS 2710, ISSP 2610 Chapter 7 Propositional Logic Reasoning

  2. Knowledge Based Agents • Central component: knowledge base, or KB. • A set of sentences in a knowledge representation language • Generic Functions • TELL (add a fact to the knowledge base) • ASK (get next action based on info in KB) • [Inference?]

  3. Note • We’re all familiar with logic from mathematics • In AI, we need to think about things we usually take for granted • To use the notion of prime number, you don’t have to think about what prime means … or number, for that matter • In AI, we create knowledge representation schemes, which define the objects, predicates, and functions which exist

  4. The Wumpus World • Game is played in a MxN grid • One player, one wumpus, one or more pits • The wumpus eats anyone who enters its room • A pit traps anyone who moves into its room • (The wumpus can be shot by an agent, but the agent has only one arrow; this and some other details won’t come up in these notes) • Player starts in 0,0 • Forward, turn left, turn right • If player tries to move forward and bumps into a wall, the player does not move • Player can grab the gold if they are in the same room • Goal: find gold while avoiding wumpus and pits

  5. Sensors • 5 sensors, each which gives one bit of information • Stench (if wumpus and player in adjacent, not diagonal, squares) • Breeze (if a pit and player in adjacent squares) • Glitter (if gold and player in the same room) • Bump (when the agent walks into a wall) • Scream (when wumpus is killed; sound can be perceived everywhere) • Percepts: 5-tuples • [stench, breeze, glitter, bump, scream]

  6. Environment? • Discrete, static, single-agent (wumpus doesn’t move) • Sequential (player’s decisions can affect future ones) • Partially observable (locations of pits and wumpus are unobservable)

  8. Wumpus • Main difficulty: player doesn’t know locations of pits, gold, and wumpus • Reason about configuration • Knowledge evolves as new percepts arrive and actions are taken.

  9. Examples of reasoning [diagram in lecture] • Player starts in (0,0). No stench or breeze. So, no pit or wumpus in (1,0) or (0,1). Player still alive, so no pit or wumpus in (0,0). Player moves to (1,0) • Breeze in (1,0). So, there must be a pit in (0,0), (2,0) or (1,1). Player already ruled out (0,0) • Since there is danger in moving to (2,0) and (1,1), player moves back to (0,0) • Player moves to (0,1). No positive percepts. Now player knows there is no pit in (1,1) yeah! and there is a pit in (2,0) (pit-def in diagram) Player combines knowledge gained at different times to make inferences

  10. Fundamental Concepts of logical representation and reasoning • Information is represented in sentences, which must have correct syntax ( 1 + 2 ) * 7 = 21 vs. 2 ) + 7 = * ( 1 21 • The semantics of a sentence defines its truth with respect to each possible world – an interpretation assigning T or F to all propositions • W is a model of S means that sentence S is true under interpretation W • [What do the following mean?] • X |= Y • X entails Y • Y logically follows from X

  11. Which are true?Which are not true but useful? • {Man, Man  Mortal} |= Mortal • {Raining,Dog Mammal} |= Mammal • {Raining,Raining  Wet} |= Wet • {Smoke, Fire  Smoke} |= Fire • {Tall ^ Silly} |= Tall • {Tall v Silly} |= Silly • {Tall, Silly} |= Tall ^ Silly [Wumpus world EG illustrating possible worlds and entailment]

  12. Entailment (reminder) • A |= B • Under all interpretations in which A is true, B is true as well • All models of A are models of B • Whenever A is true, B is true as well • A entails B • B logically follows from A

  13. Inference KB |-i A Inference algorithm i can derive A from KB A can be inferred from KB using i

  14. Inference Algorithm Examples • {A,B} |- (^intro) A ^ B • {A, AB} |- (MP) B • {A, B  A} |- (abduction) B • Internet says P|- (gullibility) P • Professor says P |- (trust in authority) P

  15. Inference Algorithms • Notes: • implication, piece of syntax |= entailment, used to describe semantics |- can be derived from* Inference algorithm, inference procedure, rule of inference, inference rule: procedure that derives sentences from sentences • [Definition of soundness of inference algorithm i] • [Definition of completeness of inference algorithm i] • * Though it can mean different things in different math/logic contexts; see “turnstile” in Wikipedia

  16. Monotonicity • [A logic is monotonic if…]

  17. Propositional Logic Syntax • Sentence -> AtomicSent | complexSent AtomicSent -> true|false|P, Q, R … ComplexSent -> sentence | ( sentencesentence ) | ( sentencesentence ) | ( sentencesentence ) | ( sentence sentence ) | ( sentence ) [no predicate or function symbols]

  18. 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

  19. Semantics of Prop Logic • In model-theoretic semantics, an interpretation assigns elements of the world to sentences, and defines the truth values of sentences • Propositional logic: easy! Assign T or F to each proposition symbol; then assign truth values to complex sentences in the obvious way

  20. Logical Equivalences • Sentences A and B are logically equivalent if: • they are true under exactly the same interpretations • A |= B and B |= A

  21. Validity • A sentence (or set of sentences) is valid if • it is true under all interpretations • Example: P v ~P

  22. Satisfiability • A sentence (or set of sentences) is satisfiable if there exists some interpretation that makes it true • An interpretation satisfies a set of sentences if it makes them true

  23. Entailment • A |= B • All interpretations that satisfy A also satisfy B

  24. Propositional Logic Inference • Question: Does KB entail S? • Method 1: Truth Table Entailment • Method 2: Proof • Proof by deduction, induction, contradiction, etc.

  25. A^C, C does not entail BC A,B, Entails AB

  26. 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 )) S4,contrapos S6: (P21  P23  P12  P32 ) S2,S5, MP S7: P21  P23  P12  P32 S6, DeMorg

  27. Proofs • A derivation • A sequence of applications of rules of inference • Reasoning by search • Successor function: all possible applications of inference rules • Monotonicity means search can be local, and more efficient

  28. Resolution • Resolution allows a complete inference mechanism (search-based) using only one rule of inference

  29. Resolution • winter v summer • ~winter v cold • Either winter or ~winter is true, so we know that summer or cold is true • Resolution rule: • Given: P1  P2  P3 … Pn, and P1  Q1 … Qm • Conclude: P2  P3 … Pn  Q1 … Qm Complementary literals P1 and P1 “cancel out”

  30. 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

  31. Resolution • Any complete search algorithm, applying only the resolution rule, can derive any conclusion entailed by any KB in propositional logic.

  32. Proof using Resolution • To try to prove P from KB: • Convert KB and P into CNF • To prove P, prove KB  P is contradictory (empty clause) • Specifically, apply resolution using a complete search algorithm until: • No new clauses can be added, (KB does not entail P) • The empty clause is derived (KB does entail P).

  33. B22  ( P21  P23  P12  P32 )Conversion to CNF • 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)

  34. Previous Slide: Sentence is in CNF • Next step (with simpler example): • (P1 v P2 v ~P3) ^ P4 ^ ~P5 ^ (P2 v P3) • Create a separate clause corresponding to each conjunct • P1 v P2 v ~P3 • P4 • ~P5 • P2 v P3

  35. Finally… • Add the negation of the goal to the set of clauses, and perform resolution. If you reach the empty clause, you have proved the goal

  36. Simple Resolution EG • When the agent is in 1,1, there is no breeze, so there can be no pits in neighboring squares • (B11  (P12 v P21)); ~B11 • Prove: ~P12. [lecture] • [What if P and ~P are both in the KB?]

  37. Horn Clauses • A Horn Clause is a CNF clause with at most one positive literal • 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

  38. 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 • Goal-directed reasoning • The state space is an AND-OR graph; see 7.5.4

  39. Wrap-up • You are responsible for everything in Chapter 7 through 7.6-2 • Note: we didn’t cover 7.5.4 or 7.6 in lecture • We will return to topics in 7.7 when we cover planning
