Abstract: Intentionality can sometimes be regarded as goals. In our daily life, goals can be a long-term picture or a short-time motivation. Observational studies show that infants selectively encode the goal object of an actor's reach \citep{woodward1998infants}. Also, infants can understand intentions of some certain actions. When it comes to AI agent, we need to represent the goal and its reward in a computational way before we train it to recognize and reason. So how to represent the goals and there advantages and disadvantages? This essay talks about some possible ways to represent goals and the relative rewards in a computational way. They are: single-goal representation, multi-goal representation, and hierarchical goal representation. The ideas are based on existing works and researches.
