In the last decade defeasible argumentation frameworks have evolved to become a sound setting to formalize commonsense, qualitative reasoning. the logic programming paradigm has shown to be particularly useful for developing different argument-based frameworks on the basis of different variants of logic programming which incorporate defeasible rules. Most of such frameworks, however, are unable to deal with both explicit uncertainty and vague knowledge, as defeasibility is directly encoded in the object language. this paper presents possibilistic defeasible logic programming (P-DeLP), a new logic programming language which combines features from argumentation theory and logic programming, incorporating as well the treatment of possibilistic uncertainty. Such features are formalized on the basis of PGL, a possibilistic logic based on Godel fuzzy logic. One of the applications of P-DeLP is providing an intelligent agent with non-monotonic, argumentative inference capabilities. In this paper we also provide a better understanding of such capabilities by defining two non-monotonic operators which model the expansion of a given program by adding new weighed facts associated with argument conclusions and warranted literals, respectively. Different logical properties for the proposed operators are studied. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

In this study, we specify the design of an artificial intelligence (AI) player for a communication game called "Are You a Werewolf?" (AI Wolf). We present the Werewolf game as a standard game problem in the AI field. It is similar to game problems such as Chess, Shogi, Go, and Poker. the Werewolf game is a communication game that requires several AI technologies such as multi-agent coordination, intentional reading, and understanding of the theory of mind. Analyzing and solving the Werewolf game as a standard problem will provide useful results for our research field and its applications. Similar to the RoboCup project, the goal of this project is to determine new themes while creating a communicative AI player that can play the Werewolf game with humans. As an initial step, we designed a platform to develop a game-playing AI for a competition. First, we discuss the essential factors in Werewolf with reference to other studies. We then develop a platform for an AI game competition that uses simplified rules to support the development of AIs that can play Werewolf. the paper reports the process and analysis of the results of the competition.
We define a programming language for multi-agentsystems in which agents interact with a common environment and cooperate by exchanging their individual beliefs on the environment. In handling the information they acq...

Different knowledge representation tasks require different knowledge representation techniques. agent designers should therefore be able to easily exploit benefits of various knowledge representation technologies in a single agent system. I describe here a modular agentprogramming language Jazzyk based on the programming framework of Behavioural State Machines (BSM). BSM framework, and thus also Jazzyk, draws a strict distinction between a knowledge representational and a behavioural level of an agent program. It supports a high degree of modularity w.r.t. employed KR technologies, and at the same time provides a clear and concise semantics.

this paper proposes an implementation of an information agent in a new form of abductive logic programming called global abduction [11]. We consider an information agent which performs not only information gathering, but also actions which update the outside world. However, since the success of the actions is not guaranteed, the agent might encounter a failure of some action. In this case, the agent needs to modify an alternative plan with consideration to the side-effects caused by the already-executed actions. In this paper, we solve the problem of such plan modification by using global abduction. Global abduction is a new form of abduction whose abducibles can be referred to in any search path once abduced. this mechanism is used to propagate information about already-executed actions so that we can modify an alternative plan to accommodate side-effects caused by the already-executed actions.

We present a distributed execution environment for multi-agentsystems running in an intermittently-connected network. We describe the design and implementation of a microkernel-based prototype operating system layer that provides services for managing agent execution. the execution environment provides the user with a consistent view of a single machine, a single file system, and a unified programming model.

We consider the programming of multiagentsystems from an architectural perspective. Our perspective emphasizes the autonomy and heterogeneity of agents, the components of multiagentsystems, and focuses on how to specify their interconnections in terms of high-level protocols. In this manner, we show how to treat the programming of a multiagent system as an architectural endeavor, leaving aside the programming of individual agents who might feature in a multiagent system as a secondary concern.
