Abstract
When an intention is decided by a computer, the conclusion part of a rule is expressed by using an intention level such as an auxiliary verb of intention and an intention is decided on the basis of the expression. A rule for a certain action is described in a format of 'IF (status of A), THEN (action B on the basis of the status A)+(intention level)' beforehand. A fitness degree indicating the fitness state of the status A to the status to be processed is calculated. When the fitness degree at the strongest intention level is highest, the corresponding rule is assumed as an intention in the status to be processed. When the fitness degree at the strongest intention level is not highest, it is converted to a fitness degree equivalent to the intention level of the next strength and a rule which is an intention to an action is decided.
