Teams of autonomous vehicles (AVs) carry out missions in a number of fields such as space exploration and searchand-rescue. However, human supervision is still required to monito...
This paper describes Icarus, an agent architecture that embeds a hierarchical reinforcement learning algorithm within a language for specifying agent behavior. An Icarus program e...
Techniques for computation on generalized diagrams are defined and the KM implications are explored. Descriptive Computing is presented and plan computation based on world models t...
This paper explores the use of an oft-ignored information source in heuristic search: a search-distance-to-go estimate. Operators frequently have different costs and cost-to-go is...
