چکیده

In this paper we describe the experiences we had at our group in building synthetic characters for virtual story telling and games applications. We provide an analysis framework useful to classify the autonomy of synthetic characters versus the control of the users over those characters. In this framework we distinguish between several types of autonomy of characters, in particular: scripted; partially scripted; influenced by role and autonomous. These types of autonomy can be found in some of the systems we have build at our group, namely Tristão and Isolda, Papous, Teatrix and FantasyA.

Joint Learning in Stochastic Games: Playing Coordination Games Within Coalitions

Despite the progress in multiagent reinforcement learning via formalisms based on stochastic games, these have difficulties coping with a high number of agents due to the combinatorial explosion in the number of joint actions. One possible way to reduce the complexity of the problem is to let agents form groups of limited size so that the number of the joint actions is reduced. This paper inves...
