In this paper, we present an architecture for software agents that enables them to learn vocabulary through the observation of each other bodies and actions. Besides sensors, effe...
—Large-scale agent-based systems are required to self-optimize towards multiple, potentially conflicting, policies of varying spatial and temporal scope. As a result, not all ag...
In this paper, we discuss the role of emotions in AI and possible ways to determine their utility for the design of artificial agents. We propose a research methodology for determ...
In this paper, we describe methods for e ciently computing better solutions to control problems in continuous state spaces. We provide algorithms that exploit online search to boo...
The research literature investigating the construction of tutorial dialogue and learning companion environments present parallel experiences in attempting to emulate what has been ...
