Persistent Episodic Knowledge

Persistent Episodic Knowledge
for Homer
In Homer, factual knowledge persists until a decision is
made to "forget" or delete it. However, Homer's record of its
experiences, maintained in
episodic memory, is never forgotten,
This results in a knowledge/speed tradeoff.
Factual knowledge can be given a time frame during
which it will be assumed to be true and after which it will be "terminated"
from generic memory. If a persistant fact
is found to be in conflict with a perceived or user-supplied fact then it will
be terminated. Even when a fact is terminated it will be remembered as having
once been true in episodic memory. When
knowledge is modified, Homer will replan
if necessary.
