A patient arrives at the doctors office with symptoms that could have been caused either by dehydration
Question:
A patient arrives at the doctor’s office with symptoms that could have been caused either by dehydration or by disease D(but not both). There are two possible actions: Drink, which unconditionally cures dehydration, and Medicate, which cures disease D, but has an undesirable side-effect if taken when the patient is dehydrated.
a. Write the problem description (i.e., the initial state, action definitions) using conditional planning descriptions.
b. Give a sensorless plan that solves the problem, enumerating all relevant possible worlds.
c. Now, add a Testaction that has the conditional effect CultureGrowthwhen Diseaseis true and in any case has the perceptual effect Known(CultureGrowth). Define this new Testaction.
d. Give a conditional plan that solves the new problem and minimizes the use of the Medicateaction.
