Policies for cloned teleo-reactive robots

Abstract

This paper presents a new method for predicting the values of policies for cloned multiple teleo-reactive robots operating in the context of exogenous events. A teleo-reactive robot behaves autonomously under the control of a policy and is pre-disposed by that policy to achieve some goal. Our approach plans for a set of conjoint robots by focusing upon one representative of them. Simulation results reported here indicate that our method affords a good degree of predictive power and scalability. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2004.
