Reflective, deliberative information gathering (doctoral consortium)
In this research, we focus on reflective and deliberative solutions to improve information gathering by agents in complex environments to handle challenging properties such as uncertainty, partial observability, non-stationarity, and limited resources. We describe the core problems addressed by this research, our ongoing contributions towards solving these problems, and describe how we are appl...
متن کاملA Preliminary Collection of Reflective Critics for Layered Agent Architectures
How can we build more robust reasoning systems? One approach is to build systems as layered agent architectures where each layer observes the activities occurring in the layers beneath, and uses knowledge about how to interpret these observations to control and debug those activities. Architectures with such ‘towers of reflection’ are uesd because it is often difficult to assure perfect operati...
متن کاملSystematic Approach to the Design of Robot Pro- Gramming Frameworks
The paper presents a transition function based formalism for specifying robot programming frameworks. It deals with systems consisting of multiple embodied agents (e.g., robots), influencing the environment through their effectors and gathering information from the environment through their sensors. The presented examples pertain to behavioral and hybrid behavioral-deliberative agents, but are ...
متن کاملReasoning about Coordination Costs in Resource-Bounded Multi-Agent Systems
Deliberative agents operating in open environments must make complex real-time control decisions on scheduling and coordination of domain activities. These decisions are made in the context of limited resources and uncertainty about the outcomes of activities. In this paper, we show that reasoning explicitly about the cost of control and domain actions leads to significant improvement in the pe...
متن کاملA Business Simulation with an Agent-Based Deliberative Model of Consumer Behaviour
Agent-based modelling, a way to simulate complex systems comprised of autonomous and interacting agents, is perhaps one of the most promising developments in experiential learning. In this paper we present a business simulation where the marketplace is modelled as an evolving system of deliberative (consumer) agents acting as utility maximizers. Concretely, we describe the deliberative-based ar...
