Title:
High-level Program Execution for Intelligent Behavior

Time & Venue:

Abstract:
The selection of the actions to do next is one of the central problems of Artificial Intelligence (AI). In AI, three approaches have been used to address this problem: learning-based approach, planning, and high-level program execution where agent behavior is specified as a high-level nondeterministic program. Golog is a representative high-level agent programming language based on the situation calculus, an expressive formalism for reasoning about actions and change.
In this talk, I will give an overview of the research on reasoning about actions and high-level program execution conducted by the Logic and Intelligence Group at Sun Yat-sen University. Topics covered include: progression of first-order knowledge bases, reasoning about state constraints, a Golog interpreter based on exact progression and limited reasoning, and a multi-agent extension of the situation calculus.
