Expediting RL by using graphical structures
The goal of Reinforcement learning (RL) is to maximize reward (minimize cost) in a Markov decision process (MDP) without knowing the underlying model a priori. RL algorithms tend ...

If I were you: double appraisal in affective agents
We report the implementation and evaluation of a Simulation Theory (ST) approach to the Theory of Mind in intelligent graphical agents driven by an affective agent architecture FA...

Supervision and diagnosis of joint actions in multi-agent plans
The paper formalizes a distributed approach to the problem of supervising the execution of a multi-agent plan where (possibly joint) actions are executed concurrently by a team of...

Nonuniform bribery
We study the concept of bribery in the situation where voters are willing to change their votes as we ask them, but where their prices depend on the nature of the change we reques...

Reinforcement learning for DEC-MDPs with changing action sets and partially ordered dependencies
Decentralized Markov decision processes are frequently used to model cooperative multi-agent systems. In this paper, we identify a subclass of general DEC-MDPs that features regul...

Resource constrained distributed constraint optimization using resource constraint free pseudo-tree
The Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) is a fundamental formalism for multi-agent cooperation. A dedicated framework called Resource Constrained DCOP (RCDCOP) has ...

Robust and efficient plan recognition for dynamic multi-agent teams
This paper addresses the problem of plan recognition for multiagent teams. Complex multi-agent tasks typically require dynamic teams where the team membership changes over time. T...

A coordination mechanism for swarm navigation: experiments and analysis
We present an algorithm that allows swarms of robots to navigate in environments containing unknown obstacles, moving towards and spreading along 2D shapes given by implicit funct...
