Preference-Based Decisions

Preference-Based Decision Procedure

The Soar decision cycle can be divided into two phases: 1) elaboration which is then followed by the execution of the 2) decision procedure. Elaboration is distinguished by the accumulation of preferences while the decision procedure determines what action should be taken next based on these accumulated preferences. When a unique decision is not specified, an impasse occurs. More detailed descriptions of this outline are available:
