Towards Approximate BGI Systems

  • Conference paper
Book cover Multi-Agent Systems and Applications V (CEEMAS 2007)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 4696))

Abstract

This paper focuses on modelling perception and vague concepts in the context of multiagent Bgi (Beliefs, Goals and Intentions) systems. The starting point is the multimodal formalization of such systems. Then we make a shift from Kripke structures to similarity structures, allowing us to model perception and vagueness in an uniform way, “compatible” with the multimodal approach. As a result we introduce and discuss approximate B gi systems, which can also be viewed as a way to implement multimodal specifications of Bgi systems in the context of perception.
