Robust Team-Play in Highly Uncertain Environments (Short Paper)
Henry H. Work, Eric Chown, Tucker Hermans, Jesse Butterfield · 2008
Eective teamwork in highly dynamic environments requires a delicate balance between giving agents the autonomy to act and react on their own and restricting that autonomy so that the agents do not work at cross purposes. In this article we describe the problems involved in coordinating behavior based upon a highly dynamic object, a soccer ball, for agents with sensing and communications limitations. We then present a system for coping with these problems and examine its success in light of its performance at the RoboCup 2007 championship.
