MODELING OF DEEDS IN ARTIFICIAL-INTELLIGENCE SYSTEMS

The topic of this presentation is the modeling of actions, in a kind of a holistic sense, within the general framework of artificial intelligence (AI). There are at least two different reasons why I found it interesting to work in this area. The first is that by now we have to deal more and more often with robots, which behave in a kind of autonomous way. And the second reason is associated with the notion of user-friendliness. In this case we must make our computers behave in a psychologically validated way. © 1993 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
