An implemented theory of mind to improve human-robot shared plans execution (2016, background): “Researchers in Artificial Intelligence (AI) developed Beliefs, Desires and Intention (BDI) theories to model rational agents for multiagents activities ([26], [27]).”
A Canonical Theory of Dynamic Decision-Making (2012, background): “As discussed above it a major focus of current research on software agents (e.g., Wooldridge, 2000; Fox et al., 2003; Poole and Mackworth, 2010).”
Tutorial on agent-based modeling and simulation (2005, neutral): “planning and agent action selection (Wooldridge, 2000).”
Argumentation-based negotiation (2003, background): “…presented by Kraus et al. (1998) and by Parsons et al. (1998), for example, allow an agent to represent beliefs about other agents’ beliefs, desires, intentions, capabilities, and so on, and are based on logics of Belief, Desire, and Intention (BDI) (Rao and Georgeﬀ, 1995; Wooldridge, 2000).”
Agents that Know How to Play (2004, neutral): “The issue is well known in the philosophy of language [29], as well as research on the interaction between knowledge and action [26, 27, 32].”
Using arguments for making and explaining decisions (2009, background): “The first step, often called deliberation [49], consists of identifying the goals of the agent.”
Ontology Matching (2007, background): “The usual way of providing a semantics for related conceptual systems is through modal logic of knowledge and belief (Fagin et al. 1995; Wooldridge 2000).”
Agent-Oriented Software Engineering: The State of the Art (2009, methodology): “The primary development environment in which this work has been carried out is the belief-desire-intention technology [74] of the Procedural Reasoning System (PRS) and its successor, the Distributed Multi-Agent Reasoning System (DMARS) [62].”
