Towards a Model of Learning through Communication

Abstract

Communication is an interactive, complex, structured process involving agents that are capable of drawing conclusions from the information they have available about some real-life situations. Such situations are generally characterized as being imperfect. In this paper, we aim to address learning from the perspective of the communication between agents. To learn a collection of propositions concerning some situation is to incorporate it within one's knowledge about that situation. That is, the key factor in this activity is for the goal agent, where agents may switch role if appropriate, to integrate the information offered with what it already knows. This may require a process of belief revision, which suggests that the process of incorporation of new information should be modeled nonmonotonically. We shall employ for reasoning a three-valued based nonmonotonic logic that formalizes some aspects of revisable reasoning and it is accessible to implementation. The logic is sound and complete. A theorem-prover of the logic has successfully been implemented.

“…at is, interaction can be conceived in terms of which goals should be followed, at what time, and by which agent. Furthermore, because agents are flexible problem solvers that only have partial control and partial knowledge of the environment in which they operate, interaction must be handled in a flexible manner and agents need to make run-time decisions on whether to initiate interactions based on their nature and scope [43].…”

“…The idea is motivated by the fact that available knowledge is usually incomplete and uncertain. Defeasible logic (Moubaiddin & Obeid, 2007, 2008, 2009Moubaiddin, Salah, & Obeid, 2018;Obeid, 1996Obeid, , 2000Obeid, , 2005Obeid & Rao, 2010;Sabri & Obeid, 2016) is appropriate in those situations where we have only partial knowledge of the actual state of affair. Nonmonotonic rule systems offer more expressive capabilities than classical logic rules.…”
