This paper is concerned with synthetic agents interacting with virtual environments, called animated creatures. The animated creatures are articulated graphical gures that are eq...
Animated pedagogical agents oer great promise for knowledge-based learning environments. In addition to coupling feedback capabilities with a strong visual presence, these agents...
We describe a uniform technique for representing both sensory data and the attentional state of an agent using a subset of modal logic with indexicals. The resulting representatio...
Quoting somerobotic examples, I willlist some key issues in fusing autonomy and sociability: tools and control architecture, attention, behavior matching, embodiment, similarity, ...
The Robot World Cup Initiative (RoboCup) is an attempt to foster AI and intelligent robotics research by providing a standard problem where wide range of technologies can be integ...
