Perception in Subsumption
Perception in Subsumption
In keeping with the philosophy of
modeling the sensing of lower animals, perception is emphasized in
subsumption architectures. A subsumption-based agent receives input
from all of its sensors all of the time. It can be wired so that
certain inputs are inhibited; in which case it would ignore those
inputs. Additionally, any particular augmented finite-state machine is
typically only wired to look at some subset of the input, if any. The
ability to perceive is very important to these architectures because
of the philosophy that "The world is its own best model.
