(e.G. Vision, speech, robotics)
Blind.
We move through the space without worrying about what is coming next, but
recognising the answer if we see it.
Informed.
We guess what is ahead, and use that information to decide where to look next.
We may want to search for the first answer that satisfies our goal, or we may want to
keep searching until we find the best answer.
Properties
It is voluminous
It is hard to characterize accurately
It is changing constantly
It differs from data by being organized in a way that
corresponds to the ways it will be used
