Abstract

"An investigation is made into the use of techniques which would normally be described as learning if encountered in a human being. A literature review of several subject areas including game-playing computer programs, automatic control systems, pattern recognition methods, and biological modeling is performed, with the purpose of extracting and examining those processes which exhibit learning. A general model of the type of learning most widely utilized in these areas is constructed and used to compare and contrast specific models which describe the learning techniques employed. Some specific models which do not exhibit learning as described by the general model are extended to illustrate the definition of learning implied by the discussion"-- Abstract, p. ii
