Project Details
Description
This project introduces a new concept to guide search in AI Planning: Contrastive Analysis. The key idea is to give AI tools the ability to understand what the advantages and disadvantages of each alternative are. My hypothesis is that this ability is a fundamental skill for decision making and could change the way current AI systems make decisions.
