This paper develops a model for precisely defining how an agent interacts with objects in its environment through the use of its capabilities. Capabilities are recursively defined ...
Abstract. This study illustrates how obstacle avoidance can emerge from a visual homing strategy, caused by the intrinsic geometric structure of the environment. An example is show...
One of the key issues in reasoning with multiple interacting intelligent agents is how to model and code the decision making process of the agents. In Artificial Intelligence (AI...
We adopt the decision-theoretic principle of expected utility maximization as a paradigm for designing autonomous rational agents, and present a framework that uses this paradigm t...
We study the development of distributed agent environments as distributed event-based systems specified in the Ambient Event Calculus (AEC). The AEC is a logic-based formalism th...
