Intention-based decision making with evolution prospection

Abstract

We explore a coherent combination, for decision making, of two Logic Programming based implemented systems, Evolution Prospection and Intention Recognition. The Evolution Prospection system has proven to be a powerful system for decision making, designing and implementing several kinds of preferences and useful environment-triggering constructs. It is here enhanced with an ability to recognize intentions of other agents-an important aspect not explored so far. The usage and usefulness of the combined system is illustrated with several extended examples. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
