Abstract

This paper describes an integrated architecture called LIVE designed for learning from the environment. The task that LIVE faces is to solve problems in a new environment using its actions and senses. In order to be able to adapt to different environments, LIVE's actions and senses are defined as "innate" properties and their linkage (i.e., actions and their consequences) is unknown before entering a new environment. LIVE must coordinate a variety of intelligent activities in order to learn from the environment. These include problem solving, exploration, knowledge creation, knowledge revision, experimentation, and discovery. The paper gives an overview of the system and discusses its strengths and weaknesses along several dimensions in comparison with other similar architectures.
