HPM: A Computational Formalism for Heuristic Procedure Modification
Proceedings of the Seventh International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence. Nowledge Representation. Pages 283-287.
Abstract
The HPM (Heuristic Procedure Modification) system is a model of strategy learning and optimization, implemented as a processing environment within the PRISM production system package (4] . This paper describes progress in getting HPM to emulate children's discoveries about basic addition procedures. HPM 's goal-trace and production -trace formalisms allow it to maintain a history of its actions which is both goal-ordered and time -ordered . Heuristics about meaningful patterns in these traces guide the construction of new productions, which modify procedures by replacing or circumventing pre -existing productions.
