Agents (hardware or software) that act autonomously in an environment have to be able to integrate three basic behaviors: planning, execution, and learning. This integration is man...
This paper addresses the problem of constructing good action selection policies for agents acting in partially observable environments, a class of problems generally known as Part...
We simulate the evolution of a domain vocabulary in small communities. Empirical data show that human communicators can evolve graphical languages quickly in a constrained task (P...
