The main goal of agent modelling is to extract and represent the knowledge about the behaviour of other agents. Nowadays, modelling an agent in multi-agent systems is increasingly becoming more complex and significant. Also, robotic soccer domain is an interesting environment where agent modelling can be used. In this paper, we present an approach to classify and compare the behaviour of a mult...

The Royal Melbourne Knights are designed to interact as a team of soccer playing agents. This paper introduces a framework for modelling agents using the concepts of roles, responsibilities and strategies in its control of the agent's motivation, attention and behaviour, respectively. Through the use of strategies, an agent may form teams that coordinate their actions. The high performance team...

Many RoboCuppers share a dream: a team of fully autonomous humanoid robot soccer players that is capable of playing soccer games against human players by 2050. The demonstration of a human versus robot soccer game at RoboCup 2007 was an exciting display of the progress that has been in RoboCup community since 1997 in terms of the robot’s autonomy, sensing ability, and physical features. This ga...

Soccer was the original motivation for Robocup. Besides being a very popular sport worldwide, soccer brings up a set of challenges for researchers while attracting people to the event, promoting robotics among students, researchers and general public. RoboCup chose to use soccer game as a central topic of research, aiming at innovations to be applied for socially significant problems and indust...

The Robot World Cup Initiative (RoboCup) is an attempt to foster AI and intelligent robotics research by providing a standard problem where wide range of technologies can be integrated and examined. The rst RoboCup competition will be held at IJCAI-97, Nagoya. In order for a robot team to actually perform a soccer game, various technologies must be incorporated including: design principles of a...

In soccer games, a performance indicator is defined as a selection of action variables that aims to define all aspects of accomplishment of the game goals. However their perception during the match is extremely difficult. Over the years, soccer has been used in many research areas including the robotic international soccer competition, RoboCup. The aim of this research project is to present a c...

This summary reports main efforts and results in the RoboCup Federation project “the Research Challenge”. The original motivation of the project was to establish an abstract and simplified 2D competition as a research challenge of the 2D league. We have tried to fulfill the goal through a middleware that implements a set of high-level actions, instead of the soccer server primitive actions, for...

In the RoboCup middle-sized soccer league, autonomous robot players in the field are required to localize themselves in real time by utilizing the sensors mounted on themselves. There could be many different kinds of sensors that can serve as part of the solution to this task. Especially, vision sensors are one of the most promising because they are small, light-weight, inexpensive, and the mos...
