These systems learn and use empirically-causal temporal relations, typically in the form of **(precondition, operation) => consequence**. This approach allows the AI to develop a goal-independent understanding of its environment, primarily derived from correlations with the AI's actions. However, albeit not "necessarily causal" these "hypotheses" are not passively obtained correlations, as they can be re-tested and seeked for by the AI to improve its predictive power. This is a significant advantage over the axiomatic relations proposed by Judea Pearl. Pearl's approach is fundamentally limited, as it cannot learn from correlation alone, but only through adjusting probabilities of already-given causal relations. This limitation is not present in the cognitive schematic approach, which makes it a more general adaptive learning model better-suited for autonomous agents. Additionally, the use of the NAL frequency and confidence values to represent hypothesis truth value enables efficient revision of the agent's knowledge in realistic settings. Unlike the probabilistic approach, this method can function effectively even with small sample sizes, can handle novel events (unknown unknowns) and has a low computational cost since only local memory updates are necessary. +## Architecture + +![image](https://github.com/patham9/NACE/assets/8284677/451c19ae-e38d-416b-be2c-569cd901a55e) + ## Related works: [Autonomous Intelligent Reinforcement Interpreted Symbolism (AIRIS)](https://github.com/berickcook/AIRIS_Public)
