Abstract: |
Anticipation occurs in all
spheres of life. Nature evolves in a continuous anticipatory fashion targeted
at survival. Conscious reaction takes too long to process. Motivation
mechanisms in learning, arts, and all types of research are dominated by the
principle that an expected future state controls present action. The study of
anticipatory behaviour refers to behaviour that is dependent on predictions, expectations,
or beliefs about future states. Anticipation is an important behaviour in life. Recently, it is used in different
system to improve its performance. In our work, we begin by making a
modification in a simulator WAL – (World of Artificial Life) to add the bases
of anticipation. Also, we try to introduce a new approach for anticipation
based on the Markov chain; we will see that with anticipation the performance
of the system will be better. We apply our approach on a well
known problem - a maze problem. |
