Learning Robustly From Instructions
Abstract
The goal of the project was to perform a proof of potential by applying ACT-R, a modular architecture, to a challenging learning task. This task involved learning what is traditionally taught as the solution of linear equations in American high schools. This involved giving the system the abilities that a prepared student entering Alebra 1 should have. This included the abilities to perform basic arithmetic and to parse arithmetic Expressions, giving the system a representation of the instructions that appear in a standard algebra Textbook, and having the system learn by feedback on its solution efforts how to solve the class of problems that appear in the textbook.
