This chapter aims to introduce the reader to the basic issues surrounding the design and implementation of intelligent agents. It begins by motivating the idea of an agent, present...
We introduce the notion of a candidate for “multiple valued universal constructions” and define stable functors (which generalise functors with left adjoints) in terms of fac...
We present a dynamic programming approach for the solution of first-order Markov decisions processes. This technique uses an MDP whose dynamics is represented in a variant of the ...
This paper suggests that the effects of counterterrorism policy on Violent Non-State Actors can be explored via systems dynamics. Specifically, we create a descriptive model of th...
