16. Game Playing We can design game playing programs using search methods So, we should visit all possible states which can occur in a game. But like many search problems, there are methods to reduce the search states (eliminates some states having no effect on search solutions)

Can ordinary search methods be used to solve the above problem? Reasonable steps to solve the problem: Getting and storing the text Analyzing text and extracting necessary information. Converting the information to suitable mathematical form Solving the equations and finding unknown variables

21. In ABC we know AB = AC A B C Are angles B and C equal? Print steps of the proof How to pose this problem for computer? Computer would search for a sequence of inference proves the fact Using a geometric model can ease the process.

22. Write a program to simplify simple expressions >>> def simplify(expr): : >>> simplify(“(a + b) (a – b)”)‏ “a^2 – b^2” >>> simplify(“(a-b) (a+b) (a^2 + b^2) + a^4 + b^4”)‏ “2 a^4” >>> simplify(“(a + b)^2 – (a - b)^2”)‏ “4 a b”

23. Write a program to differentiate simple mathematical expressions: >>> def diff(expr, resp): : >>> diff(‘2 x^2 – x + 4’, ‘x’)‏ “4 x - 1” >>> diff(‘(x - a)^2’, ‘x’)‏ “2 x – 2 a” >>> diff(‘y sin (y^2)’, ‘y’)‏ “sin (y^2) + 2 y^2 cos(y^2) ”

24. Write a program to calculate integration: >>> def integrate(expr, resp): : >>> integrate(‘6 x + 4’, ‘x’)‏ “3 x^2 + 4 x + C” >>> integrate(‘x + sin x’, ‘x’)‏ “0.5 x^2 - cos x + C” >>> integrate(‘y sin (y^2)’, ‘y’)‏ “- 0.5 cos (y^2) + C” >>> integrate(‘x sin x’, ‘x’)‏ “- x cos x + sin x + C”

25. Stages to solve such problems Assume we are going to simplify “(x-y) (x+y)” 1- Transform the expression in the form dealing with which is more convinient: For example in this case we can convert it to: [[‘x’, ‘y’, ‘-’], [‘x’, ‘y’, ‘+’], ‘*’] 2- Simplify according to some rules and algorithms [[‘x’, 2, ‘^’], [‘y’, 2, ‘^’], ‘-’] 3- Convert simplified expression to strings “x^2 – y^2”

28. Examples of Logic Suppose we have the following facts All habitants of “Bal Island” are exactly truthful or lier A, B, C are habitants of Bal island A says: “All of us are lier” B says: “At least one of us is lier” Each of A, B, C are lier or truthful ? (-> algorithmic puzzles, Mohammad Ghodsi, Fatemi Publication)‏

29. Examples of Logic We can solve this problem using search In this case we should try 8 (=2 3 ) cases For example (A is lier, B is truthful, C is lier)‏ But if we had 100 persons we should search 2 100 states (2 100 = 1267650600228229401496703205376)‏ This is practically impossible

30. Problem Solving Using Logic We can solve some of problems using logical conclusions (reasoning)‏ By logical reasoning we can obtain new facts from existing facts Reasonings can be done according to logical roles in mathematics

31. Suppose we have following facts Kamran is a student All students are humans All students like learning Know we can conclude following facts Kamran is a human Kamran like learning A human likes learning OR is not a student An Example of Logical Reasoning Suppose we have following facts Kamran is a student All students are humans All students like learning Know we can conclude following facts Kamran is a human Kamran like learning A human likes learning OR is not a student

32. Knowledge Representation Before working with the data we should be able to represent and store them in computer. There are many ways for representing information in computers, example: Ali is tall -> tall(Ali)‏ Ali is bigger than Reza -> bigger(Ali, Reza)‏ Ali is brother of Reza->Ali = brotherOf(Reza)‏ Ali is tall and Reza is not fat ->tall(Ali) AND (NOT fat(Reza))‏ If Ali is a human then he can speak ->human(Ali) => canSpeak(Ali)‏ All humans are Male or Female -> for all x : human(x) => Male(x) OR Female(x)‏

33. Fuzzy Logic Assume following predicates : My bag is at home. My book is in my bag. My brother is taller than me They are exactly True or False. So we can have some conclusions : IF (My bag is at home) AND (My book is in may bag) THEN (My book is at home)‏

34. Fuzzy Logic We want to perform conclusions on the knowledge obtained from the real world But some or most of facts in the real word are not decisive (are not exactly true or false)‏ Look the facts below: Ali is tall. The weather is hot. My book is large. It is about 2 meters high.

35. Fuzzy Logic Fuzzy Logic suggests a solution In fuzzy logic facts are not exactly true or false they instead have degree of truth If we denote true by '1' and false by '0' then truth of a fact can be a number between '0' and '1'. For example truth of “Ali is tall” can be '0.9' We can define 'AND', 'OR', 'NOT' and '=>' in fuzzy logic such as ordinary logic.

36. Fuzzy Logic Fuzzy Logic was created by “Dr. Lotfi Zhdeh” in 1960 for the purpose of modeling uncertainty inherent in Natural Language Representing vague and often contradictory knowledge. Fuzzy logic is primarily used as the underlying logic of fuzzy expert systems
