Using an Explicit Teamwork Model and Learning in RoboCup: An Extended Abstract
نویسندگان
چکیده
The RoboCup research initiative has established synthetic and robotic soccer as testbeds for pursuing research challenges in Arti cial Intelligence and robotics This extended abstract focuses on teamwork and learning two of the multi agent research challenges highlighted in RoboCup To address the challenge of teamwork we discuss the use of a domain independent explicit model of team work and an explicit representation of team plans and goals We also discuss the application of agent learning in RoboCup The vehicle for our research investigations in RoboCup is ISIS ISI Synthetic a team of synthetic soccer players that successfully participated in the simula tion league of RoboCup by winning the third place prize in that tournament In this position paper we brie y overview the ISIS agent architecture and our investigations of the issues of teamwork and learning The key novel issues for our team in RoboCup will be a further investigation of agent learning and further analysis of teamwork related issues

Using an Explicit Model of Teamwork in RoboCup-97
Team ISIS (ISI Synthetic) successfully participated in the rst international RoboCup soccer tournament (RoboCup'97) held in Nagoya, Japan, in August 1997. ISIS won the third-place prize in over 30 teams that participated in the simulation league of RoboCup'97 (the most popular among the three RoboCup'97 leagues). In terms of research accomplishments, ISIS illustrated the usefulness of an explic...
متن کاملBuilding Agent Teams Using an Explicit Teamwork Model and Learning
Multi-agent collaboration or teamwork and learning are two critical research challenges in a large number of multi-agent applications. These research challenges are highlighted in RoboCup, an international project focused on robotic and synthetic soccer as a common testbed for research in multi-agent systems. This article describes our approach to address these challenges, based on a team of so...
متن کاملTowards Automated Team Analysis: A Machine Learning Approach
Teamwork is becoming increasingly important in a large number of multiagent applications. With the growing importance of teamwork, there is now an increasing need for tools for analysis and evaluation of such teams. We are developing automated techniques for analyzing agent teams. In this paper we present ISAAC, an automated assistant that uses these techniques to perform post-hoc analysis of R...
متن کاملImplementing Agent Teams in Dynamic Multiagent Environments
Teamwork is becoming increasingly critical in multi-agent environments ranging from virtual environments for training and education, to information integration on the internet, to potential multi-robotic space missions. Teamwork in such complex, dynamic environments is more than a simple union of simultaneous individual activity, even if supplemented with preplanned coordination. Indeed in thes...
متن کاملAn Unsupervised Learning Method for an Attacker Agent in Robot Soccer Competitions Based on the Kohonen Neural Network
RoboCup competition as a great test-bed, has turned to a worldwide popular domains in recent years. The main object of such competitions is to deal with complex behavior of systems whichconsist of multiple autonomous agents. The rich experience of human soccer player can be used as a valuable reference for a robot soccer player. However, because of the differences between real and simulated soc...
