Presented at the 28th AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, Québec City, Québec, Canada, July 27-31, 2014.2159-5399http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:14169434This paper defines the "Single Agent in a Team Decision" (SATD) problem. SATD differs from prior multi-agent communication problems in the assumptions it makes about teammates' knowledge of each other's plans and possible observations. The paper proposes a novel integrated logical-decision-theoretic approach to solving SATD problems, called MDP-PRT. Evaluation of MDP-PRT shows that it outperforms a previously proposed communication mechanism that did not consider the timing of communication and compares favorably with a coordinated Dec-POMDP solution that uses knowledge about all possible observations.en-USConference Paper2014-10-08Ofra Amir, Barbara Grosz, Roni Stern2015-03-13
