The current challenge for crowd simulations is the design and development of a scalable system that is capable of simulating the individual behavior of millions of complex agents ...
Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is useful for solving agent-coordination problems. Any-space DCOP search algorithms require only a small amount of memory but can be spe...
Designers generally agree that understanding the context of use is important in designing products. However, technologically advanced products such as personal robots engender com...
In this paper, we discuss the use of Targeted Trajectory Distribution Markov Decision Processes (TTD-MDPs)—a variant of MDPs in which the goal is to realize a specified distrib...
