Goal Reasoning for an Autonomous Squad Member
نویسندگان
چکیده
Autonomous agents are beginning to play larger roles within team-oriented tasks and missions in various domains. Many reasoning agents are designed to perform in or assist with a single, static goal or task within an environment. Our aim is to design and develop an autonomous squad member that assists a squad with conducting a surveillance mission by identifying and reacting dynamically to changing situations and goals. We present a goal reasoning system for this agent that integrates natural language processing, explanation generation, and plan recognition components to recognize these changing situations and the squad’s responses to them. Our system uses goal selection and plan generation to respond to such changes. We describe the architecture we use to integrate these components and provide a case study that demonstrates how they work together to make a robust and adaptive autonomous agent.

Consider a scenario in which a six-member dismounted Marine squad is tasked with raiding a compound that recent intelligence reports indicate is harboring a terrorist group. While it is unlikely that the Marines will be directly confronted by hostiles, it is possible they could be targeted by snipers. As the squad assesses the terrorist presence in the area, a companion robot equipped with a no...

In complex and dynamic scenarios, autonomous vehicles often need to intelligently adapt their behavior to unexpected changes in the their environment. Goal Reasoning provides a methodology for autonomous agents to deliberate and adapt their goals to more intelligently react to changing conditions. This paper implements a Goal Reasoning system based on the Goal Lifecycle, and grounds the impleme...

We describe preliminary work toward applying a goal reasoning agent for controlling an underwater vehicle in a partially observable, dynamic environment. In preparation for upcoming at-sea tests, our investigation focuses on a notional scenario wherein a autonomous underwater vehicle pursuing a survey goal unexpectedly detects the presence of a potentially hostile surface vessel. Simulations su...
