PlanX: A Toolbox for Building and Integrating AI Planning Systems
Ilche Georgievski · 2023
We introduce the PlanX toolbox to support and promote building and integrating AI planning systems. The prototype toolbox is aimed at researchers and developers who need to build and use advanced AI planning systems to address planning problems. It is also well suited for composing AI planning systems that need to be integrated into larger software architectures. The toolbox offers an initial set of planning services realised using existing tools and our own implementations. The planning services are based on technologies that enable the resulting system to be easily set up and run on different platforms. We show on a use case that building and expanding an AI planning system with the PlanX toolbox is not only possible but also quick. PlanX is released as open-source to encourage its wider use and contributions to the code base.
