Abstract

As individual sub-fields of AI become more developed, it becomes increasingly important to study their integration into complex systems. In this paper, we provide a first look at the AI Domain Definition Language (AIDDL) as an attempt to provide a common ground for modeling problems, data, solutions, and their integration across all branches of AI in a common language. We look at three examples of how automated planning can be integrated with learning and reasoning.
