Abstract

We propose a formal approach to the problem of prediction based on the following steps: First, a mental-level model is constructed based on the agent's previous actions; next, the model is updated to account for any new observations by the agent, and finally, we predict the optimal action w.r.t . the agent's mental state as its next action. This paper formalizes this prediction process. In order to carry out this process, we need to understand how a mental state can be ascribed to an agent and how this mental state should be updated. In [Brafman and Tennenholtz, 1994b], we examined the first stage. Here we investigate a particular update operator and show that its ascription requires making only weak modeling assumptions.
