It is recognized in Ambient Intelligence that ambient devices should be modeled as intelligent autonomous components rather than passive information sources. The agent paradigm sui...
We describe a new organization for virtual human responses to dynamically occurring events. In our approach behavioral responses are enumerated in the representation of the event i...
We describe a general mechanism for adaptation in multiagent systems in which agents modify their behavior based on their memory of past events. These behavior changes can be elic...
This paper unifies two recent strands of research in multiagent system design. One, commitments are widely recognized as capturing important aspects of interactions among agents,...
In this paper we describe Lokutor, a virtual human. Lokutor is a partially autonomous agent, inhabiting a 3D virtual environment. The agent can be controlled via natural language ...
