We consider the role played by the concept of action in AI. We first briefly summarize the advantages and limitations of past approaches to taking the concept as primitive, as emb...
The hierarchy of untimed equivalences is well understood for action-based systems. This is not the case for timed systems, where it is, for example, possible to detect concurrency ...
Abstract McCarthy’s Situation Calculus is arguably the oldest special-purpose knowledge representation formalism, designed to axiomatize knowledge of actions and their effects. ...
In timing-based neural codes, neurons have to emit action potentials at precise moments in time. We use a supervised learning paradigm to derive a synaptic update rule that optimi...
