A Dialogue Game Protocol for Co-operative Plan Proposals
نویسندگان
چکیده
Agents that engage in a dialogue about co-operative plans need to argue about the planning elements in a structured way. We present a Dialogue Game protocol based on an argumentation scheme for plan proposals and associated critical questions that allows agents to engage in dialogues regarding such plans. The syntax of the protocol is presented along with dialogue game rules that allow agents to reach an agreement on the best proposal in a co-operative planning scenario.

Arguments over Co-operative Plans
Autonomous planning agents that share a common goal should be able to propose, justify and share information about plans. To reach an agreement on the best plan, strategies for persuasion and negotiation can be used by agents in order to share their beliefs about the world and resolve conflicts between the agents. We present an argumentation scheme and associated critical questions to create an...
متن کاملAgents Deliberating over Action Proposals Using the ProCLAIM Model
In this paper we propose a dialogue game for agents to deliberate over a proposed action. The agents’ dialogue moves are defined by a structured set of argument schemes and critical questions (CQs). Thus, a dialogue move is an instantiated scheme (i.e. an argument) or a CQ (i.e. a challenge on the argument instantiated in the scheme). The proposed dialogue game formalises the protocol based exc...
متن کاملA Generative Dialogue System for Arguing about Plans in Situation Calculus
This paper presents an argumentation mechanism for reconciling conflicts between planning agents related to plan proposals, which are caused by inconsistencies between basic beliefs regarding the state of the world or the specification of the planning operators. We introduce simple and efficient argument moves that enable discussion about planning steps, and show how these can be integrated int...
متن کاملAn Agent Design for Effective Negotiation Dialogues
A design is presented for a negotiating agent that can construct coherent joint plans with human or artificial agents. In negotiation there is always a trade-off between plan quality and dialogue length. In dynamic conditions and with human partners, length becomes critical. The approach to efficient negotiation is to use an acquaintance model that predicts which plans will be acceptable. The n...
متن کاملDesigning Co-Operativity in Spoken Human-Machine Dialogue
Dialogue model design for spoken language dialogue systems (SLDSs) is still based mainly on common sense, experience and intuition, and trial and error, rather than on established design principles. Co-operativity in dialogue is crucial to habitable human-machine spoken dialogue. The paper presents a set of principles of co-operative user-system dialogue which have been derived from a corpus of...
