The AIS Perceptual Filters

These filters determine what sensor data is passed on to the Communications Interface (CI) by the preprocessors. The current reasoning operations determine the filters to be used, and the choices are relayed by the executor. For example, an overflow of the input buffers would indicate that perception is outstripping reasoning, suggesting stronger perceptual filters. Conversely, underflow would suggest weaker filters. In addition, a decision to monitor certain parameters more closely than others would suggest appropriate filters. This provides the means for selective attention. Filters can also provide time-stress responsivity and graceful degradation in much the same way as they handle overflows.
