Abstract. Searle represents constitutive norms as count-as conditionals, written as `X counts as Y in context C'. Grossi et al. study a class of these conditionals as `in cont...
We develop a criterion for coalition formation among goal-directed agents, the indecomposable do-ut-des property. The indecomposable do-ut-des property refines the do-ut-des proper...

In case-based reasoning, the adaptation step depends in general on domain-dependent knowledge, which motivates studies on adaptation knowledge acquisition (AKA). CABAMAKA is an AKA...
In this paper, we present a multiagent model in which agents have a perception upon their shared environment, a measure is associated to the agents' perception field. We apply...
One problem faced in knowledge engineering for Bayesian networks is the exponential growth of the number of parameters in their conditional probability tables (CPTs). The most comm...
Abstract. This paper investigates utility maximising bidding heuristics for agents that participate in multiple heterogeneous auctions, in which the auction format and the starting...

The fundamental operation of dominance testing, i.e., determining if one alternative is preferred to another, is in general very hard for methods of reasoning with qualitative cond...
We present a comprehensive study of the use of value precedence constraints to break value symmetry. We first give a simple encoding of value precedence into ternary constraints th...
An important application of both data abstraction and plan execution is the execution of clinical guidelines and protocols (CGP), both to validate them against a large set of test ...

Abstract. As far as we know, there is no multi-agent system allowing to talk both about choices of agents or groups of agents, strategies, and about sufficiently rich actions. This...
