areas/planning/systems/daydreamer ============================================================= Daydreamer: A computer model of the stream of thought This is Common Lisp code for the Daydreamer program developed at UCLA from 1984 to 1988. It implements the following: - daydreaming goals: strategies for what to think about - emotional control of thought: triggering and direction of processing by emotions - hierarchical planning: achieving a goal by breaking it down into subgoals - analogical planning (chunking): storing successful plans and adapting them to future problems - episode indexing and retrieval: mechanisms for indexing and retrieval of cases - serendipity detection and application: a mechanism for recognizing and exploiting accidental relationships among problems - action mutation: a strategy for generating new possibilities when the system is stuck Origin: ftp://ftp.signiform.com/pub/dd/dd.tar.gz Daydreamer Author(s): Erik T.
