Suppose the agent has progressed to the point shown in Figure 7.4(a), page 239, having perceived nothing in [1,1], a breeze in [2,1], and a stench in [1,2], and is now concerned with the contents of [1,3], [2,2], and [3,1]. Each of these can contain a pit, and at most one can contain a wumpus. Following the example of Figure 7.5, construct the set of possible worlds. (You should find 32 of them.) Mark the worlds in which the KB is true and those in which
each of the following sentences is true:
α2 = “There is no pit in [2,2].”
α3 = “There is a wumpus in [1,3].”
Hence show that KB |= α2 and KB |= α3.
Explanation of Solution
True statement
- There are eight possible combinations in the three squares.
- There are four possibilities for the wumpus location.
- KB |= α2 is true because in every line KB is true and also has α2 true.
- This is similar in the case of α3.

- For (∃ x)(P(x,b)) Would an example of this being true if the domain was all the Avengers and x was green skin, then "b" being the Hulk would make this true. Am example of this being false would be: If the domain was all integers and x was positive, even integers and "b" was integers greater than zero.arrow_forwardCorrect answer will be upvoted else downvoted. Computer science. in case there are two planes and a molecule is shot with rot age 3 (towards the right), the cycle is as per the following: (here, D(x) alludes to a solitary molecule with rot age x) the primary plane delivers a D(2) to the left and lets D(3) progress forward to the right; the subsequent plane delivers a D(2) to the left and lets D(3) progress forward to the right; the primary plane lets D(2) forge ahead to the left and creates a D(1) to the right; the subsequent plane lets D(1) progress forward to one side (D(1) can't create any duplicates). Altogether, the last multiset S of particles is {D(3),D(2),D(2),D(1)}. (See notes for visual clarification of this experiment.) Gaurang can't adapt up to the intricacy of the present circumstance when the number of planes is excessively huge. Help Gaurang find the size of the multiset S, given n and k. Since the size of the multiset can be extremely huge, you…arrow_forwardSuppose the agent has progressed to the point shown in Figure 7.4(a), page , having perceived nothing in [1,1], a breeze in [2,1], and a stench in [1,2], and is now concerned with the contents of [1,3], [2,2], and [3,1].

- Consider a world with two species, emotional and unemotional. In this world emotional beings are deemed weaker than their unemotional counterparts. However, emotional beings are necessary for the overall population to survive. Using genetic algorithm, maintain a balance between these two species in such a way that the overall population is stronger, and its chances of survival are better collectively. Marks will be awarded based on the completeness, clarity and correctness of your solution.arrow_forwardOn an island, a group of people are living until a visitor arrives with an odd directive: everyone with blue eyes must leave the island as quickly as possible. Every evening, a flight will depart at 8:00. Everyone can see the colour of everyone else's eyes, but they are blind to their own (nor is anyone allowed to tell them). They also do not know the number of persons who have blue eyes, but they do know that at least one person has them. How long will it take the folks with blue eyes to leave?arrow_forwardFive philosophers are sitting at a round table. In the center of the table is a bowl of rice. Between each pair of philosophers is a single chopstick. A philosopher is in one of the three states: thinking, hungry or eating. At various times, a thinking philosopher gets hungry. A hungry philosopher attempts to pick one of the adjacent chopsticks, then the other (not both at the same time). If the philosopher is able to obtain the pair of chopsticks (they are not already in use), then the philosopher eats for a period of time. After eating, the philosopher puts the chopsticks down and returns to thinking. Write a monitor for the dining philosopher’s problem.arrow_forward

The j-th companion can be set before the I-th companion on the photograph if his square shape is lower and smaller than the square shape of the I-th companion. Officially, somewhere around one of the accompanying conditions should be satisfied: hj<hi and wj<wi (the two companions are standing or both are lying); wj<hi and hj<wi (one of the companions is standing and the other is lying). For instance, on the off chance that n=3, h=[3,5,3] and w=[4,4,3]: the main companion can be set before the second: w1<h2 and h1<w2 (one of the them is standing and the other one is lying); the third companion can be put before the second: h3<h2 and w3<w2 (the two companions are standing or both are lying). In different cases, the individual in the closer view will cover the individual behind the scenes. Help Polycarp for every I find any j, with the end goal that the j-th…arrow_forward1) Long before H. G. Wells wrote The Invisible Man, Plato (428– 348 BC), in The Republic, described a shepherd named Gyges who, according to a Greek legend, discovers a ring that enables him to become invisible when he turns its bezel. Gyges uses his magical powers to seduce the queen, kill the king, and take over an empire. If we have similar powers, why should we feel bound by moral constraints? In particular, if professionals are sufficiently powerful to pursue their desires without being caught for malfeasance, why should they care about the good of the wider public?arrow_forwardIn a prison, there is a door b/w any pair of adjacent cells and one exit guarded by a guard G. One prisoner is a maniac M which kills anybody he can see when he enters a cell. If M returns to the cell with his victim, then he loses consciousness and stops. In the evening all inmates and the guard went to sleep in their cells. In the morning, maniac M is gone and all other prisoners with the guard were found dead in their cells. Show the route of the maniac.arrow_forward
- Please explainarrow_forwardLet P be “this book is a non-fiction book” and Q be “the ideas in the book is consistent with physical reality.” Consider a case where both P and Q are false (e.g. a fantasy novel and an unrealistic phenomenon in the novel) and see whether it makes sense that P→Q is true. [Give an example, i.e., the name of a book and a particular idea in that book] Explain why it is possible that P→Q is true yet Q is false. [Type your explanation]arrow_forward6.
