Communicating Intentions for Coordination with Unknown
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ad hoc multiagent teamwork introduces the challenge of coordinating with a variety of potential teammates, including teammates with unknown behavior. We examine the communication of policy information for enhanced coordination between such agents. The proposed decision-theoretic approach examines the uncertainty within a model of an unfamiliar teammate, identifying and acquiring policy information valuable to the collaborative effort.

Policy Communication for Coordination with Unknown Teammates
Within multiagent teams research, existing approaches commonly assume agents have perfect knowledge regarding the decision process guiding their teammates’ actions. More recently, ad hoc teamwork was introduced to address situations where an agent must coordinate with a variety of potential teammates, including teammates with unknown behavior. This paper examines the communication of intentions...

متن کاملJ-ALINAs: A JADE-based Architecture for Linguistic Agents
The purpose of this architecture is to support communication between agents whose beliefs and intentions are driven by different, heterogeneous, knowledge models. This objective, often referred in literature as semantic coordination, can be carried on through the identification of specific agent roles and behaviors dedicated to the mediation of agents' knowledge. In particular, such minimal hyp...
متن کاملAgent Architectures for Flexible, Practical Teamwork
Teamwork in complex, dynamic, multi-agent domains mandates highly flexible coordination and communication. Simply fitting individual agents with precomputed coordination plans will not do, for their inflexibility can cause severe failures in teamwork, and their domain-specificity hinders reusability. Our central hypothesis is that the key to such flexibility and reusability is agent architectur...
