Assurances and Machine Self-Confidence for Enhanced Trust in Autonomous Systems

This work investigates a model-based approach to understanding how user trust evolves in systems consisting of a supervising user and an autonomous agent. This model consists of a multivariate model for user trust, and a feedback connection between user and agent. Feedback information is termed assurance, which is also shown to consist of multiple aspects concerning the state of the autonomous ...

Representing Patterns of autonomous agent dynamics in multi-robot systems

It is proposed that vocabularies for representing complex systems with interacting agents have a natural lattice hierarchical structure. We investigate this for the example of simulated robot soccer, using data taken from the RoboCup simulation competition. Lattice hierarchies provide symbolic representations for reasoning about systems at appropriate levels. We note the difference between rela...
