Virtual
Mattie, to actively gather information from humans, compose announcements of
next week's seminars, and mail them each week to a list that she keeps updated, all
without the supervision of a human. VMattie's architecture combines Maes' behavior net architecture and Hofstadter and Mitchell’s
Copycat architecture and significantly extends
them.
"Living'' in a UNIX environment, VMattie's
communication with humans
is entirely via email with no agreed upon protocol. CMattie CMattie is the first attempt to design
and implement an intelligent agent under
the framework of Bernard Baars' Global Workspace
Theory. She is a
successor to Virtual Mattie and performs the same function in the same environment as VMattie. IDA Intelligent
Distribution Agent addresses the Navy's problem of job distribution using the Conscious Agent
Framework. IDA is a very complex
agent that perceives e-mails from sailors, deliberates on the right jobs for the sailor and
negotiates with the sailor in the context of
sailor's
preferences and Navy's policies. This project is funded by ONR (Office of Naval Research) and NPRST
(Naval Personnel Research, Studies,
and Technology). |
