Dear Students,
We had a lively discussion in the class on examples of various types of environments. Taking the act further, please post some examples (with appropriate explanations) for the environments that we have studied. Click here to post your examples.
Best Regards,
Sohag

IN THE CLASS WE HAVE DISCUSSED FOLLOWING "ENVIRONMENT"
1>fully observable:-
eg:game(chess,cricket etc.),newborn child.
2>partially observable:-
eg:forcasting of wheather.daily news paper(no need to read all the information present in the n/s ppr.)
3>deterministic:-
eg:chess,
4>stochastic:-
eg:human life,chance of winning horse into the race(we can not detemine which one will win the race).
5>episodic:-
eg:attendence(one student may present everyday or may absent any day).
6>sequential:-
eg:nuclear explosion,flow of blood in human body.
7>static:-
eg: chess(during the movement of one player other member cannot change his/her state).
8>dynamic:-
eg:cricket match(after delivring the ball every player become alert because no one know in which direction ball will go).
9>descrete:-
eg:meal taken by us,customer arrival at the reservation counter.
10>continuous:-
eg:blood circulation in the body,
flow of water into waterdam etc.
11>single agent:-
eg:playing card into the system by user(individual player involves into the game).puzzle solving by single person.
12>multiple agent:-
eg:two player involve in chess,players in cricket,members involve in advertisement etc.
Thank You Priyanka for your effort. Does everyone agree with the examples posted by Priyanka?? In case you do not, then please mention the reasons.
Respected Sir,
i disagree with some of the points which my friend Priyanka has mentioned.
point 1. newborn child is not an environment.
point 2. while reading a newspaper we may not go through each and every article, but all articles are always accessible to be read. so it is "Fully Visible Environment".
point 6. blood flow in human body is not sequential. we can not map the flow of blood with the set of Natural Numbers, which will make it sequential.
i agree with her, when she says, that blood flow is a continuous phenomena, in the point 10.
point 11. generally in a game of cards we must have at least two players. so, if we consider the game of cards as an Environment, it is a Multiple Agent Environment, not a Single Agent Environment.
Dear Vivek,
Thank you for your contribution. Please keep the ideas coming....:)
hello sir
thanku for giving us a chance to express our views .
and i want to thank also vivek who has pointed my mistakes.
but in point 11 i have said that individual member /single member playing card(eg.freecel,hearts etc.) so definetly it is a single agent environment.
Dear Priyanka,
Thank you for your clarification. Can anyone explain the case of card-game environment?
respected sir.
i guess Priyanka is talking about the Card Games, which are played on Computer Systems.
1. freecell:
in my opinion, there are two agents. one is the human agent and the other is the Computer system itself. the Computer System as an Artificial Agent is responsible for shuffling the cards and producing the initial game. it also is responsible for judging whether the game has finished or it has become impossible to finish the game because there are no more possible moves.
2. hearts:
in this game the Computer System as an Artificial Agent is responsible for shuffling the cards, presenting an initial game and most importantly it plays on behalf of three human players, the fourth being the human player himself.
hence in both the cased it is very evident that the games are Multiple Agent Environments instead of being Single Agent Environments.
Dear Vivek,
Thank you for your detailed explanation. Anyone with contrasting views on the card game environment??
I AM NOW GIVING SOME OF THE EXAMPLES OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF ENVIRONMENTS.I WILL BW HAPPY IF YOU MAKE SOME COMMENTS.
1->fully observable
eg:elevator(it has some loading capacity.if more men are entered into it then it stop functioning)
some ACs(some modern 6th sense ACs sense the medium and accordingly change to suit the room temprature)
2->partially observable
eg:trafic signal(it doesnt sense the crowd fully)
ATM(after the user insert the ATM card ATM machine cant sense wheather that user is going for cash withdrawal or simply check the balance etc)
3->deterministic
eg:outcome of a problem,
maintainance of database
4->stochastic
eg:cricket match,human nature
5->episodic
eg:updation of software if newer version is available,
scaning of computer in every 12 or 15 days
6->sequential
eg:any game plan,
preparation for exam.
7->static
eg:loud-speaker
8->dynamic
eg:6th sense whirlpool refrigerator for cooling
9->discrete
eg:digital clock(it doesnt inform abt the seconds)
10->continuous
eg:analog clock
11->single
eg:solving sudoku,spider solitaire,solving puzzles etc
12->multiple agent
eg:gambling,playing chess,ludo,cricket etc
