Formal analyses of social action for Distributed A.I. (DAI) have focussed, almost exclusively, on scenarios in which participating agents have a joint intention to act. While such ...
Abstract-- In ubiquitous computing environments, many devices and agents interoperate with each other and use services provided by others. But the problem is that there may be requ...
In this paper, we propose a policy gradient reinforcement learning algorithm to address transition-independent Dec-POMDPs. This approach aims at implicitly exploiting the locality...
Over the years, Logic Programming has proved to be a good and natural tool for expressing, querying and manipulating explicit knowledge in many areas of computer science. However, ...
Abstract. Failures are unavoidable in many circumstances. For example, an agent may fail at some point to perform a task in a dynamic environment. Robust systems typically have mec...
