A Flexible Coupling Approach to Multi-Agent Planning under Incomplete Information
arXiv:1501.07423 · doi:10.1007/s10115-012-0569-7
Abstract
Multi-agent planning (MAP) approaches are typically oriented at solving loosely-coupled problems, being ineffective to deal with more complex, strongly-related problems. In most cases, agents work under complete information, building complete knowledge bases. The present article introduces a general-purpose MAP framework designed to tackle problems of any coupling levels under incomplete information. Agents in our MAP model are partially unaware of the information managed by the rest of agents and share only the critical information that affects other agents, thus maintaining a distributed vision of the task.
