Discretionary behavior switching: analysis and synthesis results
نویسندگان
چکیده
In previous work, we addressed how the world sometimes mandates switches in human behaviors [2]. This lead to a characterization of how humans manage such mandatory transitions. In addition to mandatory behavior switches, there are also situations where humans exhibit discretionary behavior switches. In this paper, we present a mathematical characterization of discretionary behavior switches which is applicable to both modeling human behavior generation as well as to developing action selection mechanisms for behavior-based robotics. We support this model by analyzing behaviors observed in human subjects and by synthesizing behaviors in a mobile robot.

متن کاملA method to consider Non-Discretionary factors in Data Envelopment Analysis
The technique for efficiency measurement known as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) has been extended to allow on-discretionary inputs that affect production. Several methods exist for measuring efficiency to control these factors in production. This paper review these approaches, providing a discussion of strengths and weaknesses and highlighting potential limitations. In addition, a new approac...
