Prospection: Interpretable Plans From Language By Predicting the Future
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
We demonstrate the fidelity of plans generated by our framework when interpreting real, crowd-sourced natural language commands for a robot in simulated scenes. ...
A key feature of this framework is prospection, training an agent not just to correctly execute the prescribed command, but to predict a horizon of consequences of an action before taking it. ...

Prospective logic agents
2009
International Journal of Reasoning-based Intelligent Systems
This issue brings the challenge of how to allow such evolving agents to be able to look ahead, prospectively, into such hypothetical futures, in order to determine the best courses of evolution from their ...
We conclude by elaborating about current limitations of the system and examining future work scenaria. ...
In prospective reasoning agents, exploration of the future is essentially an openended, non-deterministic and continuously iterated process, distinct from the one-step, best-path-takes-all planning procedures ...

Feeling the future: prospects for a theory of implicit prospection
2013
Biology & Philosophy
The evolution of mental time travel gives humans a unique capacity for prospection: the ability to pre-experience the future. ...
We argue that implicit simulations of past and future experience can also be used as a way of gaining information about the future to shape preferences and guide behaviour. ...
In other words her anticipation of prospects for an enjoyable dinner would be based on retrieving implicit information from the past in order to simulate the future. ...
