Extending Bdi Multiagent Systems With Agent Norms
2018
Zenodo
This paper also introduces a framework for the development of MASs that provide support mechanisms to the agent's decision-making, using norm-based reasoning. ...
The same applies when agents decide to violate a norm. ...

Reasoning about norms under uncertainty in dynamic environments
2014
International Journal of Approximate Reasoning
Thus, they require mechanisms for acquiring and accepting norms, determining when norms are relevant to their case, and making decisions about norm compliance. ...
In this paper, we propose a multi -context graded BDI architecture (called n-BDI) that models norm-autonomous agents able to deal with uncertainty in dynamic environments. ...
Multi-context Graded BDI Architecture A norm-autonomous agent is defined in this paper as a practical reasoning agent [14] whose actions are directed towards its internal goals and the norms that regulate ...

Working Towards a BDI‑Agent Based on Personality Traits to Improve Normative Conflicts Solution
2017
Proceedings of the 29th International Conference on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering
However, norms eventually can be conflicting -for example, when there is a norm that prohibits an agent to perform a particular action and another norm that obligates the same agent to perform the same ...
Norms exist to avoid and solve conflicts, make agreements, reduce complexity, and in general to achieve a desirable social order. ...
For instance, the n-BDI architecture defined by Criado et al. [15] presents a model for building environments governed by norms. ...

Cognitive Social Learners: An Architecture for Modeling Normative Behavior
2015
PROCEEDINGS OF THE THIRTIETH AAAI CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE TWENTY-EIGHTH INNOVATIVE APPLICATIONS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE CONFERENCE
In this paper, we introduce a new normative multi-agent architecture, Cognitive Social Learners (CSL), that models bottom-up norm emergence through a social learning mechanism, while using BDI (Belief/ ...
In this paper, we demonstrate the use of CSL for modeling norm emergence of recycling practices and public participation in a smoke-free campus initiative. ...
Like our proposed CSL architecture, several existing normative architectures also use BDI reasoning as a core component. ...

Noe: Norms Emergence and Robustness Based on Emotions in Multiagent Systems
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
We find that an ability in agents to consider emotional responses to the outcomes of norm satisfaction and violation (1) promotes norm compliance; and (2) improves societal welfare. ...
To achieve agent autonomy and make norm satisfaction explainable, we include emotions into the normative reasoning process, which evaluates whether to comply or violate a norm. ...

In this paper we describe an extension of the Beliefs-Desires-Intentions (BDI) architecture that enables normative reasoning used to help agents choose and customise plans taking norms into account. ...
In response, this paper introduces ν-BDI, 1 an extension of the BDI architecture [53] that enables normative reasoning, and provides a means for agents to choose and customise plans (and their constituent ...

A NORMATIVE EXTENSION FOR THE BDI AGENT MODEL
2014
Mobile Service Robotics
Starting from the famous BDI model, an extension of the BDI execution loop will be presented; this will address such issues as norm instantiation and norm internalization, with a particular emphasis on ...
While it is fairly difficult to imagine an evaluation for the proposed architecture, a challenging scenario inspired form the science-fiction literature will be used to give the reader an intuition of ...
A BDI architecture for norm compliance -reasoning with norms Criado, Argente, Noriega and Botti 3 tackle the problem of norm coherence for BDI agents. ...

N-Jason: Run-Time Norm Compliance in AgentSpeak(L)
[chapter]
2014
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
To be able to process a norm such as an obligation, the agent architecture must be able to deal with deadlines and priorities, and choose between plans triggered by a particular norm. ...
This paper describes how norm awareness enables a BDI agent to exhibit norm compliant behaviour at run-time taking into account normative factors. ...
Introduction In conventional BDI agents, norm compliance is typically achieved by design. ...

Towards polite virtual agents using social reasoning techniques
2013
Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds
With this architecture, we demonstrate (i) specifying polite behaviours as a form of social norms, (ii) generating polite behaviours using social reasoning technique, (iii) deliberation with such norms ...
To do so, we propose a high level agent architecture combined with normative framework to model and reason about "polite" behaviours in social situations. ...
From an architectural perspective, multiple institutional models and related decision making mechanism in BDI agents will be explored with the aim of providing a similar circumstance with real human society ...

Resolving Conflicts between Personal and Normative Goals in Normative Agent Systems
2016
Journal of IT in Asia
In this paper, we present a framework for resolving conflicts between personal and normative goals in normative agent systems. ...
The Sacrifice function enables an agent to reason and discard any tasks that have lower priorities to make way for accomplishment of the normative goal. ...

Towards an Architecture for Self-regulating Agents: A Case Study in International Trade
[chapter]
2010
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this paper we assess how changes on the inter-agent level affect the intra-agent level and how a generic BDI architecture IRMA can be adapted for self-regulation. ...
We propose a combined approach to identify objectives for an architecture for self-regulating agents. ...

[article]
2017
arXiv
pre-print
Normative practical reasoning supports agents making decisions about what is best for them to (not) do in a given situation. ...

Norm internalization in artificial societies
2010
AI Communications
In order to check the individual and social effect of internalization, we have adapted an existing agent architecture, EMIL-A, providing it with internalization capabilities, turning it into EMIL-I-A. ...
Internalization is at study in social-behavioural sciences and moral philosophy since long; of late, the debate was revamped within the rationality approach to the study of cooperation and compliance since ...
