We propose an approach to transformational planning and learning of everyday activity. This approach is targeted at autonomous robots that are to perform complex activities such a...
We study the complexity of sequentially-optimal classical planning, and discover new problem classes for whose such optimization is tractable. The results are based on exploiting ...
We present a hill-climbing algorithm to solve planning problems with temporal uncertainty. First an optimistic plan that is valid when all actions complete quickly is found. Then ...
An integrated optimization model of production plan and scheduling is introduced. Function objective is to minimize sum of total setup cost (initial setup cost and related setup c...
We describe Talk'n'Travel, a spoken dialogue language system for making air travel plans over the telephone. Talk'n'Travel is a fully conversational, mixed-ini...
