Abstract:
From the inception of Artificial Intelligence (AI) research it has been recognized that problem solving efficiency is tightly coupled to appropriateness of representation choice and that problem reformulation is central to human reasoning and problem solving. This talk will begin with a discussion of early explorations into automatic problem reformulation to improve problem solving efficiency. The talk will proceed with a discussion of the state-of-the-art in problem reformulation and discuss some probable future directions in this research.
