Abstract. In most agent programming languages in practice a programmer is committed to the use of a single knowledge representation technology. In this paper we argue this is not n...
State-space search methods in problem solving have often been illustrated using tree diagrams. We explore a set of issues related to coordination in collaborative problem solving a...
We identify four types of errors that unsupervised induction systems make and study each one in turn. Our contributions include (1) using a meta-model to analyze the incorrect bia...
