Frame problem
In artificial intelligence, the frame problem has a number of possible formulations. One of the most common is that it is the question of how to determine efficiently which things remain the same in a changing world. John McCarthy and Patrick J. Hayes introduced the term "frame problem" in their 1969 essay, Some Philosophical Problems from the Standpoint of Artificial Intelligence.From its origins as a special problem in AI, it now has a broader meaning in philosophy and knowledge representation.
According to J. van Brakel, some other problems that are related to, or more specific versions of, the frame problem include the following:
- extended prediction problem
- holism problem
- inertia problem
- installation problem
- planning problem
- persistence problem
- qualification problem
- ramification problem
- relevance problem
- temporal projection problem
- combinatorial explosion
- common sense
- non-monotonic logic
