Information Overload in AIS

In domains like Guardian's ICU, there are vast amounts of observable data, more than an agent can expect to absorb, even considering symbolic abstraction. In addition, the system must be able to focus its attention to important aspects of the environment. However, the agent must work continuously, so as not to miss any such important data. Also, it must consider all relevant data when making its decision, but the overload may exhaust computational resources. Instead, the system should process the data incrementally, to keep up with the data, while still gradually updating its behavior.
