{ "pk": 31730, "title": "Real-time Control of Animated Broad Agents", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "As autonomous agents' interactions with humans become\nricher, w e believe it will become increasingly important\nfor s o m e of the agents to have believable and engag-\ning personalities. In previous papers w e have described\nTok, a broad agent architecture which integrates reactiv-\nity, goal-directed behavior, emotion and s o m e m e m o r y\nand inference for agents in non-real-time worlds. In this\npaper w e discuss the issues raised w h e n w e extend Tok\nto work in real-time, animated domains. Convincing\nanimated motion poses three challenges to the architec-\nture: multipleprimitiveactions and higher level activities\nmust be executed simultaneously; future actions must be\nk n o w n before current actions complete, to enable smooth\nanimation; and the mind must be fast enough to provide\nthe impression of awareness. Here w e describe Hap,\nthe reactive substrate of Tok, and its approaches to these\nchallenges. T h e described architecture was used for the\ncreation of three agents, called woggles, in a world titled\nEdge of Intention, which was firstshown at the A A A I - 9 2\nAl-based Arts Exhibition.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Submitted Presentations", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/05d0h32c", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "A.", "middle_name": "Bryan", "last_name": "Loyall", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Carnegie Mellon University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Joseph", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Bates", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Carnegie Mellon University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1993-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/31730/galley/22798/download/" } ] }
