Implementing reflective capabilities
There are several techniques for implementing reflective capabilities in intelligent agents, such as travel agents. These techniques enhance the agents’ ability to monitor, evaluate, and improve their performance, fostering adaptability and continuous learning. An agent typically combines both traditional reasoning and meta-reasoning to operate effectively in dynamic environments. We will go through those techniques in the following sections.
Traditional reasoning
Traditional reasoning refers to the logical and systematic process by which an intelligent agent solves specific problems or performs tasks based on predefined rules, algorithms, or learned patterns from data. It operates within a fixed framework to process input and produce output, focusing on immediate goals without considering the reasoning process itself.
In the context of a travel agent, traditional reasoning involves directly handling user queries and performing specific...
