Artifact intelligence: yet another approach for intelligent robots
Hideaki Takeda, Kazunori Terada, Takahiro Kawamura · 2003
In this paper, we propose a new concept for intelligence called artifact intelligence that can be another approach to realize intelligent robots. Artifact intelligence means intelligence for artifacts that fits its embodiment, i.e., structures and functions of artifacts. Artifact intelligence differs from natural intelligence in terms of intentionality and automated objects in autonomy. In order to realize artifact intelligence, we investigate two types of affordance with the prototype robots, i.e., active affordance with the autonomous mobile chair and emergent affordance with "AgentBox".
