A Survey of Knowledge-based Sequential Decision Making under Uncertainty
Reasoning with declarative knowledge (RDK) and sequential decision-making
(SDM) are two key research areas in artificial intelligence. RDK methods reason
with declarative domain knowledge, including commonsense knowledge, that is
either provided a priori or acquired over time, while SDM methods
(probabilistic planning and reinforcement learning) seek to compute action
policies that maximize the expected cumulative utility over a time horizon;
both classes of methods reason in the presence of uncertainty. Despite the rich
literature in these two areas, researchers have not fully explored their
complementary strengths. In this paper, we survey algorithms that leverage RDK
methods while making sequential decisions under uncertainty. We discuss
significant developments, open problems, and directions for future work
