Abstract

This chapter motivates and describes a representation for incomplete information and an implementation of that representation to track possible world states despite incomplete information. Section 3.1 describes the sources of incomplete information faced by a control system. Section 3.2 presents the representation and defines new terms and functions. Section 3.3 describes a control system that tracks possible world states using the given representation. Finally, Section 3.4 describes related work.
