Analysis and Synthesis of Learning Agent's Communicative Behavior

This paper is about people. It is about understanding how learning and communication mutually influence one another; allowing people to infer each other's communicative behavior. In order to understand how people learn to communicate, we refer to existing theories. They are the logical theories of learning and communication, situated cognition and activity theory.
