Model of Plan Formation by New Caledonian Crows

The computer model of planning the rather complex behavior by New Caledonian crows is developed and investigated. The model characterizes the following processes: 1) analysis of predictions of elementary actions, 2) generation of a simple knowledge database that describes the set of initial situations, actions, and results of actions, 3) planning a concrete chain of consecutive actions. The model is inspired by the biological experiment on New Caledonian crows.
