Hierarchical Planning
Approach to solving complex problems by breaking them down into more manageable sub-problems, organizing these into a hierarchy.
Generality: 845
Forward Chaining
An inference method used in AI, particularly in rule-based systems, that derives conclusions by iteratively applying rules to known data until a goal is reached.
Generality: 596
Production System
A framework used in AI for automated problem-solving that consists of a set of rules and data, enabling systematic exploration of possible actions to achieve a goal state.
Generality: 725
Inference Engine
Software component that applies logical rules to a knowledge base to deduce new information or solve specific problems.
Generality: 675
Reasoning System
Software entities designed to emulate human reasoning processes by drawing logical inferences from available data or known facts.
Generality: 775
