چکیده

Stigmergy, usually used on simple problems, can be applied to more complex ones by encoding them in the agents’ environment. We show how stigmergic agents can plan over a hierarchical task network, a resource-oriented dialect of the TÆMS language. Our results reveal an important distinction among HTN’s.

Stigmergic reasoning over hierarchical task networks

Stigmergy is usually associated with semantically simple problems such as routing. It can be applied to more complex problems by encoding them in the environment through which stigmergic agents interact. We demonstrate this approach by showing how stigmergic agents can plan over a hierarchical task network, specifically a resource-oriented dialect of the TÆMS language. We not only report our su...

Stigmergic Linking for Optimising and Reasoning Over Information Networks

This main contribution of this report will be to describe and evaluate a set of tests, used to measure the effectiveness of stigmergic linking with regard to query optimisation. It will be shown that the results of queries can be autonomously fed back through a network to allow it to self-optimise. The type of network that is being considered is a network of information sources, such as a ‘know...

Automating Oncology Therapy Plans by means of Temporal Hierarchical Task Networks Planning

This paper is focused on the representation of oncology treatment protocols by a temporally extended, Hierarchical Task Networks (HTN) based knowledge representation as well as their interpretation by a temporal HTN planning process. The planning process allows to obtain temporally annotated therapy plans that support decisions of oncologists in the area of paediatrics oncology.

Maintaining Consistency in Hierarchical Reasoning

We explore techniques for maintaining consistency in reasoning when employing dynamic hierarchical task decompositions. In particular, we consider the difficulty of maintaining consistency when an agent nonmonotonically modifies an assumption in one level of the task hierarchy and that assumption depends upon potentially dynamic assertions higher in the hierarchy. The hypothesis of our work is ...
