Modeling Adaptive Autonomous Agents
- One category of researchers in artificial life is concerned with modeling and building so-called adaptive autonomous agents. Autonomous agents are systems that inhabit a dynamic, unpredictable environment in which they try to satisfy a set of time-dependent goals or motivations. Agents are said to b

How To Do the Right Thing
- This paper presents a novel approach to the problem of action selection for an autonomous agent. An agent is viewed as a collection of com- petence modules. Action selection is modeled as an emergent property of an activation/inhibition dynamics among these modules. A con- crete action selection

Issues for Software Agent UI
- Agent user interfaces pose a number of special challenges for interface designers. These challenges can be formulated as a series of issues which must be addressed: understanding, trust, control, distraction, and personification. We examine each of these in turn and draw recommendations for designer

Augmenting Looking, Pointing and Reaching Gestures to Enhance the Searching and Browsing of Physical Objects
- Abstract. In this paper we present a framework for attaching information to physical objects in a way that can be interactively browsed and searched in a hands-free, multi-modal, and personalized manner that leverages users ’ natural looking, pointing and reaching behaviors. The system uses small in

Agents with Faces: The Effect of Personification
- It is still an open question whether software agents should be personified in the interface. In order to study the effects of faces and facial expressions in the interface, a series of experiments was conducted to compare subjects' responses to and evaluation of different faces and facial expression
