Multiresolutional Symbol Processing in Intelligent Systems
Alex Meystel · 2005
Two major algorithmic tools associated with multiresolutional systems are discussed in this lecture: 1) "Multiresolutional Formation of the Motion Trajectory," and 2) "Synthesis of Possible Worlds". The first tool contains a family of niultiresolutional algorithms applicable for motion planning and control. It focuses upon imagining changes and is actively helpful for reasoning about actions. They are supported by and associated with many auxiliary multiresolutional algorithms of perception, estimation and information organization. The second tool focuses upon creation of new states and objects. It is concerned with the mechanisms of imagination which are supposed to be embodied by the system of goal planning as a component of each intelligent s,ystem. At the present time, we are capable of some rudimentary capabilities to synthesize the alternatives for objects and processes of the reality in a joint functioning of these two tools. The paper outlines the calculus of this synthesis. The views presented in this lecture are oriented toward multiple practices of various Life domains. Somehow, in all cases, the multiresolutional approach turns out to be productive as follows from the examples.
