Simple Preferential Interpreted Inhibition net Agents and the System M

Abstract

Now we consider net agents based on interpreted inhibition networks which are antitone and which do not have inhibitory connections. By ‘antitone’ we mean here: the net I is such that N is antitone in I. The property of being antitone together with the lack of inhibitory connections directly entails that in such networks every excitatory connection from a node which is not the bias, to another node is superfluous. Thus, in such nets the “essential” excitatory connections lead from the bias to other nodes. A node gets excited either directly by the input or by the bias node. These networks are of course trivial but they may be used in order to complete our intended list of representation results.
