Understanding

 1.) to perceive the meaning of words.

As perhaps the simplest example A.s.a. hears/receives the word "stop" and halts its motion.*

2.) interpret in a particular way (perhaps resolving ambiguity).

As a simple example hearing the word "stop" when in the act of lifting or moving A.s.a. knows to halt that particular action.

3.) infer something from information received.

With wheels turning and no motion of the robot body observed A.s.a. concludes it is stuck.

4.) an observation is classified as an example of a general pattern.

A.s.a. displays more complex examples of each of these.

* see, for example, Experiments with A.s.a. H., in my book Twelve Papers, available on my website Robert-W-Jones.com under "Book."
