The ability of artificial companions (virtual agents or robots) to establish meaningful relationships with users is still limited. In humans, a key aspect of such ability is empath...
Typically agent evaluation is done through Monte Carlo estimation. However, stochastic agent decisions and stochastic outcomes can make this approach inefficient, requiring many s...

— Using a game-theoretic model combined with the evolutionary model, we investigate the conditions under which the desirable interaction rules will evolve and sustain in various ...
We present a new algorithm for computing the winning region of a parity game played over the configuration graph of a pushdown system. Our method gives the first extension of the...
Acts of interpersonal touch – a touch shared between two people – are used by couples to communicate in a simple and emotionally intimate way. In this paper, we argue that the ...
