Environment

Teton is a general impasse-driven problem solver designed specifically to examine the problems of perception-modulated problem solving and goal reconstruction. The environment in which the agent can behave is constrained by the domain-dependent operators provided at run-time.

Teton contains two special purpose memories that expand its environmental capacities: the visual scratchpad and the auditory buffer. The former memory, in addition to facilitating the perceptual requirements of the agent, can be used for a look-ahead search that can extend forward 12 states. This arbitrary limitation has been applied to model the human's inability to perform deep look-ahead searches.
